Summary/Abstract: This passionate collector donated his entire collection to the Sarajevo Museum in 1961. Prominent among the extremely diverse artefacts he acquired are about 4,000 menus, attesting to the cuisine and the design of menus over a long period, in different circles and for a variety of occasions. The collection is not currently on display in any of the Museum’s dependencies, but should shortly be presented in our virtual museum.
