the old ones are the best

Misc.
Personally I love the older recipes, they never go out of date for me. Some of my favorites are tried and true old recipes. I too have lots of cookbooks, several of them are old. I have a Betty Crocker from the 50's, my grandmother's Searchlight cookbook from 1942 (original copyright 1931) that has seen better days, and a long since lost it's cover and some pages are missing Town Crier Flour baking book dated 1932. Plus a few others. I would be happy to share anything, what are you looking for?
