Unique vintage recipe ephemera lot featuring Depression-era and WWII-era cookbooks plus a handwritten household recipe notebook dated 1939. Great Americana kitchen collectibles with authentic handwritten notes, cooking history, and early American home economics interest.

Included in this lot:

• 1943 “Mexican Cookery for American Homes” by Gebhardt’s, San Antonio Texas

• “Aunt Sammy’s Radio Recipes Revised” issued May 1931 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Bureau of Home Economics

• Handwritten recipe/classroom notebook marked “Betty Ann Cibulka” with dated entries from 1939 and handwritten recipes throughout

The Betty Ann notebook appears to have started as a school spelling/lesson notebook before becoming a handwritten family recipe book. Includes recipes such as cream pie and pumpkin pie along with handwritten notes and measurements. A wonderful snapshot of everyday American life from the late 1930s into the early 1940s.
