About This Item
Chicago, IL: American Institute of Baking, 1953. Staplebound. Very Good. Faint rubbing of spine, pencil mark and erasure on front cover, coffee rings on back. Sounds worse than it is, crisp smooth tight and otherwise as new clean, hard to believe it is over sixty years old. One of the early works in the imminent avalanche of dieting and calorie counting and ideal weight charts. No recipes. The real charm of this 3.3 x 5.25 inch, 30pp booklet is the week's worth of Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner menus with exact measurements of ingredients and its overall vintage graphic layout.
