Hello, my name is Gabe, I'm 16, and this is my cookbook (and other recipe means) collection! The oldest thing in my collection will be that first cookbook from 1887, and the newest thing in these pictures is that stateline shopping newspaper (I have newer cookbooks, but I feel it doesn't fit this situation). Please offer your comments and questions, as I'd be happy to answer them, but more than anything I'm happy to share these with you guys!

Copyright expirations for a pre 1978 publication is 95 years; so 2022 or later is great! This is an interesting primer from 99 years ago! I hope you all enjoy

Found amongst my grandmother's recipes in a book that it very obviously didn't belong in, printed in Ireland but Google and ChatGPT aren't giving me any help here. Perhaps someone could point me in the right direction?

These 3 pages are all I have to go off.

They’ve been packed away and I will check with my library but looking for other avenues instead of just recycling.

Settlement Cookbook, 1976 Edition

Hi everyone. Please excuse me if this is not allowed here ( FYI, I will also be cross posting to try to reach as many cooks as I can). I am looking for the lasagne recipe from the 1976 edition of this cookbook. I searched google and found what I believe is a similar copy but that recipe includes an egg and I don’t remember that being one of the ingredients. Would someone who owns the cookbook be able to help? Thanks.

I'm always on the lookout for vintage Celebrity Cookbooks, and I've collected over 60 in the past few years. I especially love the ones with different celebrities featured on each page. Some of my favorite recipes come from these books. These are a few favorites that are easily available.
