Looking for Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook 1950

Misc.

I posted a similar message last week. I am looking for either a copy of the above mentioned cookbook or copies of several recipes from it.

The reason I am looking for it is that, after the recent death of my
mother, I went to her copy of this cookbook, from which she taught me to cook, to find several recipes which are virtual family heirlooms for us - a coffee cake recipe with a crunch cinnamon and one for basic sweet dough which are so reminiscent of my mother that I can literaly smell them baking when I think of her. Anyway, the pages for those recipes are missing from the book. They were used so frequently they probably fell out!

I am have now emailed Betty Crocker and also in touch with several people who may have or be able to find the recipes or the cookbook, but am still interested in finding anyone else who may be able to help.
