Scope and content
Color photograph taken in May, 1963, of the elegant Three Keys restaurant. Managed by Max Jaunzems, the Three Keys was located in the Winthrop Hotel. Decorated in subdued earth tone shades, the restaurant would have provided comfortable dining under the soft lighting of chandeliers and sconces. The main dining area had been re-named the "Three Keys" by new hotel owner/manager William Hamman to stand for the three keys to fine dining: carefully prepared food, properly aged wines and excellent service. The $65,000 remodeling project included gold tufted banquettes and curved settees. (TNT 5-1-63, A-6)
