Description
An image of the interior of the Paramount Restaurant in Gulfport, Mississippi is featured on this postcard. The counter with barstools is on the left side of the restaurant and two rows of booths are in the center and on the right side of the restaurant. A sign that reads "Thanx Folks" is lettered on the wall above two doors on the back wall. The title of the card is printed along the bottom edge of the card and claims the Paramount is "famous for fine foods". A paragraph on the back of the card advertises that the Paramount is "noted for its fine foods prepared in our extra-clean kitchens."
