This photo represents only a fraction of the cookbooks that I have collected over the years. I estimate that I have over 1,000 cookbooks! Some are old, some are new, some are big, some are small, but the truth be told....the vintage "cookery" books are my favorite of all!
What is a "cookery booklet?" They are the small, soft-cover booklets. Typically, they are were used for advertising purposes and were published to market a particular brand-name. For example, Betty Crocker, Bisquick, Rumford Baking Powder, etc. I have a large collection of vintage cookery booklets as well as appliance recipe booklets for vintage mixers and other popular appliances from the 1950's-1960's.
It is getting harder to find vintage cookbooks and cookery booklets. I treasure the find and believe in keeping them in circulation for others to enjoy. To see what I've posted "For Sale" visit my Etsy shop, http://www.Etsy.com/shop/CookbookPeddler
