Item description from seller

Presumed first edition (no additional printings listed) . Staplebound paperback, original covers, 7x11 inches, nonpaginated (approximately 32 pp, printed on one side onlly) , punched for string hanging, no illustrations; looks ca. 1920s-1930s. Very good. Corners bumped and creased, two 1 inch tears and three approximately 1/2 inch chips or nibbles along fold of covers, age yellowed, a few approximately 1/4 inch nicks on four adjoining leaves, otherwise tight, clean, paper crisp, unmarked and apparently never read. Interesting relic from the days when gas stoves were coming into more common use, with recipes using accurate measurements, temperatures and cooing times, for five to six course meals prepared in the oven or broiler. Cookbook; cook book.

Store description

Nestled in a valley in the Endless Mountains, where the temperature can dip below freezing even in mid-June, sits Frost Pocket Farm. While our harvest of organic produce may be subject to the whims of nature, the crop of books is always a good one. The selection is as varied as the interests of its proprietor. A native of NYC, who dissipated his youth and more mature years in used bookstores and reading, as well as earning degrees in history, biology, banking and counseling plus studying 2 years at the University of Paris, he is constantly acquiring quaint and curious volumes, as well as the more mundane, on every imaginable subject. Low overhead means low prices geared towards the trade and the savvy retail client. To the extent possible, we use recycled packaging material (economy and ecology are both dervied from the same Greek root), and all books are shipped in corrugated cardboard. Every attempt is made to accurately describe the books, including their faults, and everything is completely guaranteed! (Sorry, we are strictly mail order, and due to insurance and other concerns cannot accomodate visitors.) On-line booksellers since 1996; ancient for this business!…
