Postcard Friendship Friday - Smoking Salmon

Here's a fish card from The Queen Elizabeth Hotel of Montreal. It illustrates one of the "Specialty dishes from the Beaver Club Menu as seen by Montreal artist Jeff," Smoked Salmon. This particular salmon is smoking as is the gentleman seated next to him.

At the time this card was printed, Queen Elizabeth Hotel was a C. N. R. hotel operated by Hilton Hotels International. The hotel was built in 1958 by the Canadian National Railway. It is now owned by Fairmont Hotels and Resorts. The Beaver Club was founded in 1785 by French Canadians and Scots.

If you have any fish postcards, there's still time to participate in the "Fish" Postcard Scavenger Hunt for May.

  3. It would be considered politically incorrect now, I think. :) I love smoked salmon even though it's very rich.
