Book: "Menu Design in America" covering 1850-1985

Publishing house "Taschen" started a clearance sale today for demos and slightly damaged books. They are clearing out "Menu Design in America" which covers 1850-1985. Of the 12 sample pics they show on their web site, they definitely include material from Las Vegas, and some of it is tropical-themed with flamingos. My guess is that there must be some more tropical / tiki in this book, so this is a heads-up if you're interested in menu graphic design in general. Pic of the book cover and the sale advert is provided below.

Cost is $25 instead of $59.99 for the brand-spanking-new book -- I'm buying a copy. Shipping is free for orders of $100+. They have lots of other very interesting books for sale as well. The sale runs from Jan 25 - Jan 28, 2018 and is 30% - 70% off normal prices. These are the fine folks who previously printed and published The Book of Tiki.
