A Fat City re-run, without commercials
| See Charles in person, unedited and commercial-free |
In the autumn of 2008, I was given the opportunity to put on a pair of stain-resistant linen gloves so I could carefully investigate the different historical items in the Kansas City Museum’s collection of vintage menus — mostly from the Union Station restaurants and the actual railroad dining cars — and asked to present a lecture as part of the organization’s Community Curator series.
When another Community Curator couldn’t make the scheduled June date, the Kansas City Museum decided to bring me back — like an old TV sitcom rerun — to give the lecture again tomorrow: Tuesday, June 22, at 6 p.m. in Union Station. There is no charge for the event. There isn’t any food, either, but we can certainly talk about it.
