Step back in time with this lot of 4 authentic community fundraiser cookbooks, each brimming with homemade recipes, local history, and small-town charm.
From church kitchens to hospital auxiliaries, these books were lovingly compiled by generations of Ohio families — the very recipes they served at potlucks, holidays, and community gatherings. Inside, you’ll find casseroles, salads, breads, desserts, and more… complete with nostalgic typewriter fonts, regional specialties, and family names attached to each recipe.
📚 Included in this lot:
Delightful Recipes – Zeta Chapter of Beta Kappa Tau (vintage mimeograph style)
Main Dishes, Casseroles, Sandwiches – Local community fundraiser (orange cover)
Our Favorite Recipes – Women’s Auxiliary of Heller Memorial Hospital, Napoleon OH (First published 1957, this copy 7th Printing 1980)
