Frank Macintosh was commissioned by the Matson Line in the 1930\’s to make a series of menu covers promoting Hawaii as a destination. His work is reminiscent of Diego Rivera\’s and other Mexican muralists of the time, though his subject was Hawaiian women, flowers, fish, and other island specialties. His work is highly collectible as ocean liner memorabilia and as Hawaiiana. This menu cover is unused, without a menu inside. A couple small specks to figure\’s skirt, minor darkening to lower front corner, else very good and bright.
