The Creative Cooking Course edited by Charlotte Turgeon from Larousse Gastromiue 1982 Weathervane Books Vintage Book

Description

The Creative Cooking Course not only offers 1,200 mouthwatering, delicious recipes but also offers a complete cooking course through expert, easy-to-follow instructions and 2,500 specially created full-color photographs.

The Creative Cooking Course is an excellent addition to your vintage recipe collection or home library.

You can search any term used in an antique or vintage cookbook you're unsure of in my glossary of terms used in vintage cookbooks. Or just read it for pleasure; I found learning what brown flour is very interesting.

Condition

The Creative Cooking Course is in good vintage condition for its age, with no rips or tears and minor stain on page ends, and wear on the dust jacket as shown in the photos.

Please use pictures as a guide. If you have any questions or need more photos, ask.

The vintage & antique items I share with you have been previously owned and loved. They may show some wear, typical for vintage or antique pieces.

Book dimensions:11x9x2

  • Near Fine: Close to new. Any flaw is small and named above.
  • Very Good: Light use. Every flaw is named above, and none of them get in the way of reading or display.
  • Good: Complete and usable, with clear signs of use. Every flaw is named above.
  • Fair: Heavy wear or damage, named above. A reading or working copy, not a display piece.

Every item is honestly described and carefully packed. These are vintage pieces, so light age-related wear comes with them. I show and describe what I see so you know what to expect.

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.
