November 20, 1961, Oshkosh Daily Northwestern
This encouraging report that a localized fire within the Hotel Menasha was contained quickly also brought out elaborate details of the historic interior of the structure. If only I had colorful photos to share of the treasures within! A black and chartreuse theme! Deep orange and white color schemes! But suffice it to say, we'll just have to delve into our imaginations from the vivid descriptions provided. A black and white photo of one mundane plaque certainly does not do justice to what must have been a celebratory tableau of Menasha railroad history and Indian life.
