Description

The listing, Old recipe cards!!! from at least the 1940's-50's!!! has ended.

FOUND THIS IN OUR ATTIC RAFTERS!!! A box full of index card old recipes!!! I thought this would be fun! I will start with 20 cards (a few from each category). For every 100 credits, I will add 10 more! Over 1000 credits and you get them all including the box!!! Sooooo cool to look at and make! Our prior generations sure knew how to cook/bake!!!
Categories include:beverages,breads,cakes,candies,canning,chafing dish,cookies,desserts,frozen desserts,fish,game,pasrty/pies,salads,sauces,soups,vegetables,meats,misc.

It is a standard index box size and it is FULL! There are some on regular index card, cut out of magazines, newspapers, etc. At least 60-70. Hope that helps! Some seem fragile and I don't want to mess with them too much! :)

Wow, I would really love this! I am an avid canner; I am interested to see what some of the things they canned were!

I won't spoil it ALL for you, but a few examples are; Spiced apples,plum conserve,ginger pears,peach conserve,pickled cantelope,and sliced sweet cucumber pickles. That's all I'm sayin....:)

That is so cool. They ought to be scanned in the computer to preserve them. Or copied.

Well whoever gets these, I hope will do that! That is a great idea! I have copied some by hand that I would love to try, :)

Wowwww!!!! Unfortunately the bid has gone higher than the credits I have. I'm sure someone will really treasure these. Would love to have had them, but glad you will get a lot of credits for them. :)

And I agree with Siyue...:)
