The Stork Club Bar Book Lucius Beebe 1946 First Edition

Published in 1946, The Stork Club Bar Book captures the spirit of Manhattan’s most celebrated nightclub at its height. Founded in 1929, the Stork Club became a defining institution of mid-century New York—its Cub Room attracting high-profile patrons, Hollywood stars, and political powerbrokers alike, from the Duke and Duchess of Windsor to Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, and Joe DiMaggio.

Written by Lucius Beebe—columnist, bon vivant, and chronicler of “saloon society”—the book offers not only cocktail recipes but a portrait of the rituals, personalities, and atmosphere that made the Stork Club synonymous with glamour.
