Description:
St Louis. MO, 1940. One page autographed letter signed, from Irma Rombauer, author of The Joy of Cooking, and a major figure in the history of American cooking. Addressed to Louise [Diallo],The last name was supplied by the seller and is not indicated on the letter itself. In black ink on cream colored stationery printed in brown, "Mrs. Edgar Rombauer - 5712 Cabanne Avenue - St. Louis - Mo. The letter contains regrets for not staying longer at an event and, most interesting, a full recipe. The recipe, for "Bran Biscuit," appears in very close form in the 1936 edition of the Joy of Cooking and in later editions, and contains both the ingredients list and the step-by-step instructions. With one fold, otherwise fine. Rombauer manuscript material is very rare, and we have not been able to locate another record of it entering the marketplace.

One Hundred and Sixty Culinary Dainties: for the Epicure, the Invalid and the Dyspeptic
by Hobbs, Samuel
- Used
- Hardcover
London: Dean & Son, 1884. Octavo, 150, [2] pages. Advertisements. The Chef du Cuisine of "Messrs. Gunter & Co... and many of the Nobility" offers a collection of dishes which in our world seem hardly dainty or appropriate for the invalid. Instead, within we find a meat-centric extravaganza including "Curried Pheasants", and "Bombs of Fat Livers a l"Ambrosia'. There are a few beef teas, and light soups, but I'll return here for the "Sweetbreads of Lamb a la Monarque" with bacon, truffles and cockscombs. The recipes employ a little graphic design I've not seen before. When indicating the size of a dice or chop, the author has included small black squares or other shapes indicating size. The squares are just printers slugs, but they appear in the text. An interesting and early graphic representation. With the original errata slip tipped-in. In publisher's black and gilt-stamped boards, which display the inaccurate title, "One Hundred Fifty Culinary Dainties". Very near fine. [OCLC locates nine copies; not found in Cagle].

Description:
Paris: Michel David, 1711. Octavo, [6], 536, [8] pages. Frontispiece, five leaves of folding plates. Second printing of the First Edition. Michel David issued the title originally in 1710. A compilation of two seventeenth century works by Nicolas de Bonnefons, here issued under a royal privilege granted to Louis Liger, sieur d'Auxerre (1658-1717). The work is divided into four books, the first three concerning cooking, the fourth dealing with gardening, and with an additional brief treatise on hunting and fishing. Liger's compilation of de Bonnefons' work continued to be revised and reissued after his death and well into the eighteenth century. And rightly so. De Bonnefons' work recognizes the primacy of excellent ingredients. The final section is considered to be the first work on the kitchen garden. John Evelyn, who translated the work in 1658, called it "the first and best work of that kind that introduced the use of the olitorie garden to any purpose." Contemporary full-calf, compartmented spine…

Amsterdam: De Spieghel, 1927. Portfolio (29 x 21cm), [48] pages, with twenty one hand-colored plates, all on a sturdy, thick card stock . FIRST EDITION, limited & signed, Roman numeral III of seven copies in portfolio form, signed by Bodenheim. There was also a state with 100 copies, in book form, bound in a Japanese style and printed on Japon Van Gelder. Rhymes by Lizzy Ansingh, with drawings by Nelly Bodenheim of anthropomorphic fruits, nuts and vegetables, including lemons, grapes, pears, radishes, red pepper, almonds, blackberries, apricots, cherries and leeks. The vignette on the folio and many of the plates appear not printed at all but rather were entirely done by hand. The illustrations are rich in color and originality, with a naive style and an accessible, wry humor. Bodenheim was a popular book illustrator in the Netherlands in the early twentieth century and she and Ansingh teamed up on numerous projects. Plates well preserved and clean. The folio ledger has light soiling on its boards…
