In my bookcase I've got TONS of vintage cookery-books and recipies. My newest hobby is to choose and make one of the cakes/dishes and then picture them together with the original picture.
Here's my "Palm-Cake" (anno 1947):

Hiya

I got out some books and will photograph them later on and put them up over the weekend for you. I found an old Family Circle one which is hardback. I was really excited when I got this one as Family Circle is a magazine that has been around for years for women. I used to read it myself when I was younger. I dont know if they ever had it where you are but it was really big back in the 50's and 60's onwards here in the UK. The book that they brought out has some fantastic retro pics in it.

All recipes greatly received I love cooking :)
