I've got one of the first menus from the first Kelbo's on West Pico. At that time they didn't even have any cocktails, only beer and wine.

On the menu the owners, whose name combines to form 'Kelbo's' (Thomas Patrick Kelly and Jack H. Bouck), talk about pouring the slab for the restaurant on October 15, 1945.

My wahine picked it up for $45, and possibly because it's where we used to date, or because it's a So Cal location, it's one of my favorites.

I can only post a portion of it because the bed on my scanner isn't long enough to scan the whole menu.

(Soon as mama-san comes back from Minnesota (don't ask) I'll beg her to scan and post it.)
