Art of Cooking and Serving, 1929

Description

Art of Cooking and Serving, by Sarah Field Splint, published by Procter and Gamble, Cincinnati, Ohio, 1929. First edition. 252 pages. Many (for the time) full-color photographs. Excellent condition! (Marked down from $38.00.) You can learn what kind of napkins you should use for what sorts of meals, what kind of functions you can plan if you only have a maid or if you have butler–not to mention where to place the finger bowls! Here’s the part that amuses me: “A wise mother will encourage her girls and boys to assume this share of family responsibilities [serving as maids or butlers,] and will cultivate their pride in doing their task well and in saving her so many steps.” Published in connection with Crisco.
