Beschreibung
352 pages including adverts and index (but, as noted in the York University copy "numerous errors in paging") with one unpaged advert for Bee Products Limited tipped in facing page 172. Copyright 1928: likely the year of issue as 1921 Chauvenet wines are advertised and the advert for Doctor Jean L. Barbeau surgeon-dentist shows an image of the ancient swastika. [The 1932 issue has 224 pages.] Numerous adverts as "this beautiful and exceedingly useful book is a gift to you, on the occasion of your marriage, from the manufacturers and other business concerns whose announcements appear within its covers" [p.8]. Primarily a cookbook (up to page 235) including cocktail recipes, then a variety of household instructions: flower arrangement, sewing, the care of your canary, on keeping furs, auction bridge and how to play it, marriage laws of the province of Quebec, to save a person on fire, care of the teeth & eyes, what every expectant mother should know.&c. - with corresponding adverts. Cover rubbed and faded; clumsy use of glue to hinge at title page and rear hinge. Ink notation to front endpaper: "printed when God was a boy". Short closed tear to one leaf; one recipe with inked check marks - else a tidy interior. Binding is sound. 10.25 x 7 inches. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers Books015200
