    Cookery Calendar 1927 and F.W. McNess Cook Book, Two Vintage Recipe Booklets, Woman's World Magazine

    $34.99$0.00

    Two vintage recipe booklets, both printed in Chicago. The Cookery Calendar comes from the Woman's World Magazine Company and carries a 1927 copyright, with a black cover and an Art Deco illustration of a woman in a red and white checkered dress.

    The F.W. McNess' Cook Book is the second piece, a light blue booklet showing a woman and two children looking at a chocolate pie, with McNess' Champion Brand Flavoring Extract and McNess' Chocolate Dessert pictured on the cover. Its publisher is Furst McNess of Freeport, Illinois, and a dealer stamp for Ira M. Mitchell of Flat Rock, Michigan, is printed on it.

    The Cookery Calendar cover shows heavy white scuffing across the black surface, and its pages are tanned. The McNess booklet is the cleaner of the two and has a hole punched at the top left corner.

    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 your order within 1 business day, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
