Zombie Glass - Frosted White with Black Graphics & Script - for Monte Proser's Beachcomber

in 1 collection

This is a frosted zombie glass marked for Monte Proser's Beachcomber. It features Monte as a beachcomber under a palm tree with the words "Monte Proser's Beachcomber" on front. The back has the word "ZOMBIE" in all caps with cartoon lightning bolts around it.

This glass was likely used at several of the Monte Proser's Beachcomber locations.

Monte Proser was one of the first to lift Donn Beach's Don the Beachcomber concept, and he lifted the famous Zombie drink right along with it. Proser was largely responsible for introducing the Zombie to the east coast. He started with "Monte Proser's Zombie," a bar created for the New York World's Fair in 1939. Based on that success, he opened Monte Proser's Beachcomber at the end of that same year, December 26th, 1939, in a space above the Winter Garden Theatre in the Theater District north of Times Square (the same space would later hold Lanai, and then Hawaii Kai). Following this, several other locations sprang up, including Miami Beach, Florida, Boston, Massachusetts, Baltimore, Maryland and Providence, Rhode Island.
