Scope and content
Menu for Sammy’s Coffee Bar in Calgary, AB. The cover features a charcoal sketch of Sammy and the sentiment “Eat well my Friends as we are here to please you – Sammy.” The sketch is signed Bowen. The back cover carries another message in Sammy’s handwriting, “I have a jewelry store just around the corner. I call it Switzer’s because it happens to be my last name. We feature costume jewelry of the latest design. Drop in and see for yourself. – Sammy P.S. Bring your dark glasses; the place will dazzle your eyes. P.S. We also have the finest in quality watches and diamonds priced just for you.” Both fore edges of the cover have stains from what looks to be binder ring holes, suggesting this menu was stored in a sleeve in a binder at some point. The restaurant makes its own ice cream and claims to be the first coffee shop in Alberta with T.V. Sketches on the walls are by Calgary’s John Bowen.
