In thirty years of collecting Lindbergh memorabilia this is the rarest item in my collection. It is the dinner banquet menu honoring Captain Charles Lindbergh the night of the his historic ticker tape parade in Manhattan -June 14th, 1927. The dinner was held at the Hotel Commodore and was given by colorful Mayor Jimmy Walker. Noted dignitaries cited in the contents of the menu include Al Smith, Charles Evans Hughes,Jimmy Walker, Grover Whalen, amongst others. This historic document is in color and in pristine condition. This program was purchased privately from the estate of Lindbergh's attorney, James Phalen. I have never seen this advertised on ebay. There are a few very small - pin head size brown marks on the cover (see last photo) Everything else is like brand new.Note - The Program is white. My pictures have shadows and a yellowing that is not on the Menu
