Antique 1912 revised edition of Lowney's Cook Book by Maria Willett Howard, published by The Walter M. Lowney Co. in Boston. This hardcover volume features a red cloth binding with black decorative lettering and illustrations. It contains a full record of recipes intended for the housekeeper, ranging from beginner to ambitious levels. Notably, the interior includes a charming handwritten "Creamy Topping" recipe on the front endpaper and a sentimental gift inscription dated November 1914 from "Mother to Alice." The book shows authentic age-related wear, including spine fraying and foxing, which adds to its historical character. This book has definitely been shown a lot of love, but I always enjoy seeing a book with handwritten notes. Author: Maria Willett Howard Publisher: The Walter M. Lowney Co.
