Asian-American emphemera, 1868-1986.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/754872698

An artificial collection of ephemera created by a bookdealer. Included is some 19th century material, but most dates from the 1940s on. The menus are primarily from Chinese restaurants in San Francisco's Chinatown; the cookbooks are both Japanese and Chinese. Most of the individual authors and corporate bodies listed have written political activism articles on such topics as Chinese exclusion and Japanese internment.
