Christmas dinner menu, 1970s.

This special one-day menu features a decorative background incorporating a star-topped Christmas tree under which are found gifts such as a drum, doll and--of course--a steam locomotive. Entrees included native Tom turkey with apple-pecan stuffing and baked sugar cured ham with raisin sauce. Pumpkin pie Chantilly made for a classic holiday desert.
