Dinner menu from the QUEEN ELIZABETH for August 12, 1962. The front cover has a painting by artist Georges Charles Robin, while the back cover lists the Cunard passenger fleet at this time. Compared to earlier menus, this one has a slightly more international flavor to it, with offerings like Kebab Ben Hur, Beefsteak Suki Yaki and two mentions of paprika. In addition, the note at the center bottom says that "The Chef invites you to give him an opportunity to prepare your own favorite dish-- whether it be a specialty of American, European or Eastern cuisine."
