Pressure Cookery and Family Cookbook: Collectible Cookbooks in Miss Eileen’s Vintage Shop

I just listed two fantastic cookbooks in my vintage shop, MissEileen.

The first one is Parents’ Magazine Family Cookbook published in 1953 by Parents’ Magazine. Lots of family friendly recipes.

The other cookbook is Pressure Cookery by Leone Rutledge Carroll, illustrated by Jan Freeman, and published by M.Barrows and Company, INC, New York, 1947. The book is a hardcover with spiral binding that shows a little wear on the outside. The inside of the book is in very good condition, although yellowed a bit with age. Written in the early days of pressure cooking. As stated in the book, “Pressure pan cooking is here to stay.”
