The Berghoff Restaurant. 17 West Adams St., Chicago, Illinois. “A favorite eating place since 1898 for Chicagoans and out of town visitors. Nationally famous. Exceptional menu of authentic German and American dishes. Atmosphere and decor reminiscent of Old Chicago-and Old World Charm.”

Colorful postcard depicting street scene drawings of The Berghoff in 1898 and The Berghoff today. “Today” is probably the 1950’s due to the style of the women’s dresses. The Berghoff is still going strong, and is listed on their website (www.berghoff.com) as “Chicago’s oldest restaurant.”

Divided back, unused postcard with writing on the back that says “Been here several times.” Published by Thiessen Printing Corp., Chicago IL
