The Capital Restaurant, Hoquiam, Washington 1906 Sizes:A3+ (329x483mm, 13x19 inch) Archival Print (Unframed) Long Suey and Suey ShinThis beautiful embossed 1906 menu cover features a Native American in a canoe with his tepee and campfire in the background. It comes from The Capital Restaurant in Hoquiam, Washington, whose owner was an Englishman called Mose D Freeland. The menu is written in what seems to be a Chinook dialect but there is a joke at the end of the menu, so this seems to have been a promotion dreamed up by the proprietor.
