Sobre este artículo
New York: Covici-Friede, 1930. Large octavo ( 23.5 x 15.5 cm.), xiii, 358, [6] pages. Illustrated with twelve full-page works after drawings by Jean Cocteau, Djuna Barnes, Ruth Reeves, Henri Newell, Remo Bufano, and others; additional vignettes in the text. Preface by John Collier. FIRST EDITION. A mix of seasonal recipes, music, poems, proverbs, quotes, and writings. The title continues, "recipes for strange and exotic dishes, with divers considerations anent the cooking and the eating thereof, together with the feast days and the fast days and many proverbs from many lands also the words and music of such old-fashioned songs as should be sung by all proud and lusty fellows. To all this is appended a garland for gourmets tressed with many quaint fancies and literary blossoms culled from the most noble writers of all the ages." A bit of age-toning internally, otherwise clean and sound. In publisher's orange cloth with paper title label on spine; darkening to spine & board edges and some significant staining to the spine panel. As such, good only. With the bookplate of Philip Wallace Nash to the front paste-down, and an ownership signature of the same. Nash was a member of the New York Stock Exchange and of the Wine & Food Society.
