Ming's menu, 1957?
Item — Box 10
Identifier: 1975-002-6.1-10-010
Scope and Contents
Ming's menu. Upon research, this is more than likely the location at 147 Pender Street in Vancouver, Canada. This is based on the fact that the political flyer urging the recipient to re-elect Ralph Campagney for Minister of National Defence is stamped with a marker from the Liberal Committee Room, located at 135 East Pender Street. The date is taken from Campney's re-election efforts in 1957, which he lost.Menu includes Chinese dinner items. Paper placemat is heavily illustrated...
