Arkiva Tropika











These fabulous vintage menu covers are from Arkiva Tropika - the personal tropical/ tropical themed ephemera collection of Mimi Payne; "From Florida to Fiji, from Haiti to Hawaii, from Seattle to Samoa, Arkiva Tropika is about the classic island imagery of tourism".

Her vast collection consists of mainly 50s/ 60s examples. The menus covers above are only the tip of the iceberg and every one is fantastic. 


Now go, make a cup of tea and grab the biscuits, you'll be there a while!
