About This Item
Mount Vernon, New York: Peter Pauper Press, 1956. Hardcover. Very Good Minus/Very Good Minus. McCrea, Ruth. Pictorial paper covered boards in matching dust jacket, 12mo, 61 pages, two color decorations by Ruth McCrea. Some dark spots in front and rear endpapers, inked inscription in front endpaper; lightly worn dust jacket with some discoloration on rear and faded patches on front panel, now in protective mylar cover. Nothing says mid century like Peter Pauper Press. A fun collection of fairly simple recipes that would have been considered pretty fancy in the 1950s along with some great dinner party staples.
