Heimann, Jim, Heller, Steven and Mariani, John. "Menu Design In America, Rice Bowl, c. 1936." Taschen, 2011.

Here we can see a beautiful 1936 menu from Los Angeles, California. The color is vibrant and the detailed illustration really makes this piece very eye appealing. It is an excellent example of Art Nouveau.
