Seller: Alexanderplatz Books, New York, NY, U.S.A.
Soft cover. Condition: Good. Wrappers, bound with a cord. Dinner menu with list of guests and commentary. Very large folio, the standard format for the dinners of this club, which united gourmands such as Alfred Knopf and food and wine professionals such as Alexis Lichine. This menu came from the library of architect Michael Harris, one of the guests at this dinner. Good condition with a few wine spots (my guess is the Chateau Latour 1934 served with the cheese course) on the cover. Two pages with text, "Symbolic Lights and Fires" from The Christmas Book by Francis X. Weiser and "In Defense of Wine" from In Praise of Wine by Alec Waugh. Special shipping arrangements may be necessary due to size.
