Back in the 1960s, Pan American World Airways’ First Class service was known as The President Special. The physical menus were quite large, about 14 X 11 inches, and featured artistic renditions of Clipper Ships. Food was catered by Maxim’s of Paris. This menu is from the early 1960s and I believe is off a Honolulu to Tokyo flight.
