55 Ways to Save Eggs, published in 1920 by the Royal Baking Company, a manufacturer of baking powder. The booklet has old and new ways for making various dishes using fewer to no eggs. Apparently eggs were expensive in 1920 and it was cheaper to substitute baking powder to save on the price of eggs.
Jell-O America's Most Famous Dessert - At Home Everywhere, published in 1922. More than congealed salads, there are recipes for whips, creams and puddings.
Unknown title - the book was given to new brides. This book belonged to Mr. & Mrs. Nelson who married on June 24, 1925. Recipes and hints for the new bride, plus lots of ads for everything a newlywed couple needed to start their household.
Directory and Cook Book, published in 1927 by the Grace M.E. Church in Lincoln, Nebraska. Cool vintage ads, meal menus and recipes.
