Terre Haute, Henri’s Restaurant and Drive-In
This unused card wanted to emphasise that, in their words, “you may order from, and eat in your car!” As it was also “one of the most beautiful dining places in the entire mid-west,” one wonders why one would want to stay in the car. One will never know, as the restaurant seems not to be there any more. Grade: 1

Code: 10115077
Price: $1.00
