One of the most famous American cookbooks ever printed! If you grew up in the mid 20th century like I did, you are likely familiar with the red and white checkered cookbook that your mother referred to time and time again for making delicious family meals.
This is a RARE, 1951 De Luxe Edition of the original Better Homes and Gardens order Cook Book (not the "New Cook Book") - I've only ever come across one of the original versions once before! The cover has the classic red and white checker pattern, but with a thin style font instead of the block letters used on later editions. This 5-ring binder cookbook is divided into 20 chapters and an index, all organized with section tabs for easy reference. It is a classic kitchen resource that will never go out of style! Plus, there are tons of vintage illustrations and photos that are sure to bring back memories!
Title: Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book
Format: Hard Cover 5-ring binder
Edition: Revised De Luxe Edition, 25th printing, 1951
CONDITION - This was a well loved cookbook and it shows. It has shelf wear, soiling and some jagged page edges, as well as a torn binder hole here and there. But that is to be expected with a nearly 75-year-old cookbook! There are no missing pages and it appears to be complete. But the best part is that it's filled with all kinds of treasures like added recipes and hand written notes. This cookbook is a literal historical artifact of American cooking.
