Most of these menus date from the 1950s period, except for the Caribbean Island, Cunard 125, East Wind, & the Explorers
Three of the Dancer covers are of interest because they're 1960s reproductions of mouth-paintings by Elizabeth Twistington-Higgins. Until being handicapped by polio, she had been an accomplished dancer herself.
The set of 4 winds were not introduced until around 1964. Not only was there the fabulous artwork on the cover, but there was also an apposite verse, saying or quotation on the back.
