How long has the reuben sandwich been around?

[Andy M.]

Worst of all, I haven't had a good reuben in a very long time. I would really love to have a REAL deli around here.

Andy I know it is not close, but if you are the mood for a little drive hop on Rt 84 and take exit 65 in Vernon CT. There you will find Reins Deli. It is, IMO, the best deli anywhere around here.

Thanks, GB, I'll keep it in mind but it would be almost a 200 mile round-trip. I'll have to save it for when Suzanne is REALLY in the mood for a sandwich and a ride.

We still fondly remember our last visit to the Roxy deli in Times Square!

I found out an interesting fact about the reuben sandwich--since BCEagle posted such. How long has it been around do you guys out there think?
I'll answer later. No fair googling.

72 years..................
