Relive cherished moments from the early 1950's with the "Famous Rooms in Hilton Hotels" series... a great set for collectors. Included are the Roosevelt Grill at New York's Hotel Roosevelt, the Starlight Roof at the Waldorf Astoria, Chicago's Empire Room (left), the Pool Terrace at the Caribe in San Juan, Washington DC's Mayflower Presidential Dining Room or the distinguished Oak Room at New York's Plaza.

In these famous ballrooms and restaurants, the elite would gather for exquisite cuisine, delightful music, power networking, or simply the chance to be seen among the society set. This series was symbolic of Hilton's prized reputation across the nation. These colorful pages will make a fine addition to any vintage ad collection.

Several Hilton "Famous Rooms" ads are available for sale in my eBay Store Hilton Hotels Category.
