This is an original vintage linen napkin from The Blue Room at the historic Roosevelt Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Blue Room opened in 1935 and quickly became one of America’s most famous nightclub venues, hosting entertainers such as Louis Armstrong, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, and many others.
This napkin features:
• Woven fleur-de-lis damask
• Greek key border pattern
• Classic Blue Room dancer figure printed in blue
• “The Blue Room – Roosevelt Hotel – New Orleans” marking
• Crisp design with strong graphics
• Age spots from storage and use (see photos)
Hotel linens rarely survive in good condition due to heavy commercial laundering, making this a scarce and highly collectible piece of Blue Room and Roosevelt Hotel history.
Perfect for collectors of:
✔ New Orleans memorabilia
✔ Louisiana history
✔ Historic hotels and nightclubs
✔ Roosevelt Hotel / Fairmont ephemera
✔ Vintage linen & damask textiles
A rare survivor from the Roosevelt’s golden era.
