The collection is made up of over 2000 menus from all over the world with a large part being Australian in origin. It contains menus from a variety of sources including cruise, club, restaurants, bars, and hotels from the early 1900s to the present. The collection functions as a wonderful resource which displays the changes of styles in food and menu design over the last 100 years. The cruise menus in our collection are particularly evocative of a mode of travel and the pace of life of an earlier era.
