Ford Treasury of Favorite Recipes from Famous Eating Places Volumes 1 2 3 Cookbook Bundle with Ford Times Traveler's Cookbook

$39.99

This bundle includes four Ford Motor Company cookbooks: the Ford Treasury of Favorite Recipes from Famous Eating Places first volume (copyright 1950, Simon and Schuster), Vol. 2, and Volume 3 (Golden Press), all compiled by Nancy Kennedy with art direction by Arthur Lougee, plus The Ford Times Traveler's Cookbook Vol. II, and all four shown are included in the sale.

All three metal spiral spines are in good condition and the graphics are lovely throughout, while the covers show the wear, corner rips, a stain, and a bend named in the condition notes below.

Ford gathered these recipes from restaurants, inns, and roadside eating places featured in Ford Times, pairing each recipe with a painting of the place and a short history, so the series reads like a mid century road trip across America. The Traveler's Cookbook adds 41 prize winning outdoor recipes for car travelers, picnickers, and outdoor chefs.

Questions buyers ask

Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.

Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.

I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.

I process order within 2 business days, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
