Image
Menu of Cornish pasties and desserts offered by Pendarvis House, a group of restored stone houses built by Cornish settlers in Mineral Point. The cover of the menu has an illustration of a woman waving a cloth as she stands in the gateway of the stone house known as Trelawny, with a view of Pendarvis, the stone house next door. A small illustration of a streetlamp appears beneath the main image on the cover. The inside of the menu has an illustration of Trelawny and Pendarvis, as well as a third house, Polperro, along the same road. The insert for the Cornish pasty side of the menu features an illustration of a steaming-hot pasty.
