1950s/60s (?) OLD ORCHARD GOLF CLUB - Matchbook Cover - Mount Prospect, Illinois
Description: Here's an over-sized matchbook advertising Old Orchard Golf Club in Mount Prospect (or Prospect Heights), Illinois. It also promotes the course's "NEW DINING ROOM AND COCKTAIL LOUNGE" with "STEAKS, CHOPS, CHICKEN, SEA FOOD". "A New Thrill in Dining" and "COCKTAILS TO YOUR INDIVIDUAL TASTE". The phone number is given as "Clearbrook 3-9859", which may help to date the match book.
The inside provides a map to the club's 9 & 18 Hole Courses.
Produced by Superior Match Co., Chicago, U.S.A.
Actual Size: approx. 2" x 2-1/8" (closed)
Date: Not dated, but based on the phone number, probably from the 1950s or early 1960s.
Condition: Good, I'd say. The matchbook has some light staining and slight edge wear. The striker strip looks like it might have been used once (or perhaps it's just a light scratch). The matches have been removed. (Please see scans.)
**NOTE**: Shipping charges are discounted when more than one of my items are purchased at the same time. See what else I have to offer!
