Cool Culinaria offers giclee and stretched canvas prints of Wolfie's Cocoa Beach vintage children's menu: This children's menu, which could be turned into an astronaut mask, came from the popular Wolfie's restaurant in Cocoa Beach, Florida. Many little boys and girls were allowed to take them home, but only if they cleaned their plates first.  Unfortunately, the menu doesn't include a corned beef sandwich... still cool, though. |

Beautiful. The menu has 1960s pricing too, with a Kosher hot dog, mashed potatoes, green peas, rolls and butter costing 70 cents. |

I thought some here might want to see what an original looks like. These were diecast cut to the outline of the helmet, and the nose and eyes are perforated to be punched out and used like a mask. This one was signed by Walter Cronkite to "Carol Ann" on May 15, 1966 - presumably since Walter was there at the Cape covering the launch of Gemini IX for CBS.
