Vintage Pillsbury Bake Off Cookbooks

I find a lot of newer Bake Off books all the time and pass on buying since I am trying to only purchase prior to 1975.  I have picked a copy here and there and still am actively on the search for "missing" editions! My Holy Grail is the FIRST edition printed in 1950.
 

Pillsbury 100 Prize Winning Recipes 1951 (2nd). It took a little research to date this book since the cover was missing. The winning recipe was the Starlight Double Delight Cake. The prize was $25,000.
