This book has been well loved (seen a lot of parties). Worn cover, and some water (alcohol) damage to inner cover (front and back), and to the outside of pages. However, the inner pages are in great shape! No damage to the descriptions, stories, recipes, or illustrations. I’ve seen this book sell for more than I have it listed, but considering the condition of the cover and absence of a dust jacket, I’m selling it for a lower price. 1956 edition with illustrations by Bill Charmatz
