Description

"Cupid's Book," a source book for new brides published by Kiessling Publishing Company, Oakland, 1929. The work features many menu items and recipes, as well as household hints, meal planning, and table etiquette. There are also some Los Angeles-area advertisements, so this was a locally-distributed work by the publisher. With some minor soiling, creases, and edge wear to the Art Deco-designed wrappers and clean pages, the condition is good.
