Item description from seller

A smart first edition of this fantastic cocktail chart with measurements of each spirit and ingredient. First edition. A single sheet chart comprising a list of cocktails and the corresponding ingredients. With a column detailing whether this drink should be shaken or stirred, and another column detailing the type of glass to use. Simply find the cocktail you desire in the left-hand column and trace the amount of the different ingredients necessary. For example, a Manhattan requires one dash of Angostura Bitters, two dashes of Curacao, 1/3 of Rye Whiskey, and 1/2 of Italian Vermouth, with one cherry and one squeeze of lemon peel to be stirred and poured into a cocktail glass. In the original full cloth binding. Externally, very smart with minor wear. Internally, firmly bound. Page is very bright with the odd small spot. Very Good Indeed.
