The printed board

The 2023 menu, photographed.

The board is a document rather than a photograph, so it lives on its own page, transcribed in full and at a size you can actually read.

Atmosphere

Licensed photographs, not Doc’s.

Only so many photographs of the shop survived. These four are licensed stock, kept because they show the kind of evening Doc’s put on — string lights, a guitar, a shared table, a glass of horchata. Each is credited to its photographer.
