On Hold SOLD! ... Vintage SWEET POTATO Recipes by Homemakers of Virginia’s EASTERN SHORE VA Cookbook

Community fundraiser-like recipe book cookbook with ALL recipes food specific ... SWEET POTATO RECIPES By Home Makers Of VIRGINIA’S EASTERN SHORE This undated circa early 1980s, second printing, published by the Virginia Sweet Potato Commission, Richmond, recipe book measures approx 5-5/8”x 8-1/2” with 100 numbered pages, including Index. Equal to the uniquely individual recipes, compiled by Glenda Kay and Ralph H Yarborough, are the quality illustrated drawings and anecdotes of historic regional interest. Of special interest is the Foreword by Mr Yarborough and the History of Eastern Shore from Tidewater Virginia.

Tucked inside cookbook’s front cover is a full-page newspaper-clipping article by Jim Quinn, dated November 20, 1983, for 2 sweet potato recipes. Both recipes were entered by Horticultural Society garden advisers. FIRST PRIZE given to and recipe for CLASSIC SWEET POTATO PIE is by Hazel Felton who got the recipe from Carmenthe Pringle, one of Hazel’s gardeners. HONORABLE MENTION given to and recipe for SKINS-ON SWEET POTATO PIE is by Sally McCabe. Neither pie takes more than 15 minutes to assemble, after you’ve boiled the sweet potatoes. Try this great southern invention, and you may never bother with Pumpkin Pie again.

Also From Intro:

At first glance some of these recipes will appear to be the same - but upon reading you will find that each homemaker has her own proven method for a successful sweet potato dish. We have included all these methods with the hope that you, the cook, will be able to develop your own dishes when you see how easily it is done.
Sincerely,

Glenda Key

Condition: Very Good, and I checked EVERY page to enter all the names! (I include ALL names in ALL fundraiser-type cookbooks because I know how frustrating it is to hope and wonder if specific contributors are included in a book, only to find out they’re not, upon receipt.) Pages and covers are clean, tight to plastic spiral binding, no tears or chips, all pages intact, no defective spirals. The only writing is penned small and neatly “Coleman 1982” on title page corner. Very little wear to cover edge/corners and page corner tips. This is an absolutely exceptional cookbook, and, when all else is perfect, I only wish this, and others, cookbook’s binding spirals were larger ... why DO they cram so many pages within that results in more-difficult-to-turn pages easier and safely AND also pulls covers so tightly that the inside pages are exposed?! Any shadow is from copier and NOT on items. Books are NOT from smoke-free or pet-free environment. Email with questions or requests. Images are part of the description; please SUPERSIZE them for clarity.

Seize this scarce book for posterity, the descendants, future generations of those who contributed the recipes ... this legacy may be all there is!

Shipping: 1-pound securely packed in plastic and BOX to protect the spiral binding (not a flimsy clasped or bubble envelope!) Media/Bookrate mailing. BUYER pays ACTUAL mailing cost - NO HANDLING FEE ... SELLER pays USPS Delivery Confirmation and PayPal fees.
