Vintage menus for the SS Werra in the GG Archives collection represent the souvenir breakfast, luncheon, dinner, daily, private party, special occasion, and specialty menus provided to the passengers during their voyage. Many of these souvenir menus have disappeared over the years.

Vintage Luncheon Menu Card from 8 September 1900, on board the SS Werra of the Norddeutscher Lloyd featured Cream Soup of Lentils with Frankfort Sausage, Grilled Pigeons on Toast, and Vegetable & Tomato Salad.
Our collection contains a sampling of menus initially produced and printed by the steamship lines. They are often used to illustrate family history books for immigrants from this time.
