Smith's delightful compilation was first published in 1866. There was a second issue in 1876 and a third in 1884 so this is probably the fourth edition. The last edition may be that of 1890.

19010051881901. Unique Antiquarian Sidder Jewish Prayerbook Circa 1901 with Brass Trimmed Celloid Cover with Bone Celluloid Brass Tin and Velvet Embellishments The title page is missing but this volume is consistent with the book: Form of Prayers and Blessings of Israel with an English Translation published by the Hebrew Publishing Company Brooklyn New York Book opens right to left. 511 pages. 32mo: 4.75 by 3.5 inches in size and 1.75 inches thick. The book is white celluloid with a brass frame on the front and back covers. Teeny brass nails mark the midpoint of the frame closest to the spine on both front and back cover. A detailed brass clasp and peg to hold the volume closed are intact and working. The front cover has many layers of artistry. Working from back to front outside in: a brass frame about a quarter of an inch all around a then a celluloid border about a half inch. On top of that there is a deep very detailed frame of silver colored metal oxidized possibly tin about 4.5 by 2.5 inches. A zig zag border design is around all inner and outer edges of the tin frame. The frame does not respond to a magnet and may be sterling silver or German silver. The center is kind of an ovoid cutout. The embellishments have been incised from a single sheet of silver colored metal some fine detailed work. On top of the silver colored frame and secured by 16 teeny brass nails is a very detailed "lacey" celluloid/faux ivory border. The design ranges from a quarter of an inch at its narrowest to an inch at its widest and features little leaves. Inside the silver colored metal frame is red velvet backing and in the center of that is a handcarved ivory medallion of the 10 Commandments Tablets which is about .75 inch wide and 1.5 inches long. 480 or so pages with Hebrew and English text. The pages are gilt edged all around. The inside covers are lined with a white moire paper. There is a bound in Czecho-Solvakia sticker on rear endpage. The celluloid spine is peeling from the velvet backing and is chipped at all corners. The book itself is fragile. This was a beloved and well used volume that went to shul often and it does have much handling wear and tear. Front hinge is separated with pages prior to page five including title page and contents page missing. Pages 5 to 474 are detached from cover but intact and bound together. Inside front cover is soiled with some losses to the moire. There is a tiny stain in the margin of pages 5/6 and one in the margin of page 285. Pages 7 and 17 have some light blue crayoning. Several folded page corners. Some pages are cut without a margin on the bottom - a publishing error. Back hinge is broken with interior spine exposed at page 474. Page 475/476 is missing and page 477/478 The Hymn of Glory and Prayer for the Goverment is torn and creased. 477 to rear endpage is detached together. Clasp has a slight bend. Back cover has fingermarks. There is tiny spot on front cover. There is a slight bend to the metal frame on the right side. . Ivory; Velvet; Brass; Celluloi. Fair/No Jacket. 32mo - over 4" - 5" tall.

1984004820Sacramento California 1984. 4to size hardcover with interior three ring binder. The vinyl binder has an illustrated front cover. Interior pockets in the front and back of the book allow you to tuck in additional recipes. The vinyl covers are "washable" and can be wiped with a damp cloth. The book is three inches wide one of the largest community cookbooks we've ever seen. Section dividers are tabbed with name of section and have original full-page sepia illustrations. The same artist has created decoration used throughout the book. There are also several bible quotes scattered throughout the book. Each section is paginated individually but the book does not have a total pagination. There are more than 200 pages in a variety of shades with 500 recipes. Each recipe is "signed" with the name of the contributor; there is no index of contributors. There is no Table of Contents but there is an extensive alphabetical index. Each section also has its own Contents page. This cookbook has one significant unusual feature: these recipes were tested and standardized a note in the book explains that they eliminated "quaint but vague language such as 'take a bissell'". We very rarely come across other community cookbooks other than Junior League that test the recipes. If a recipe calls for a can or package of some ingredient - this book tells you exactly what size to use. It also provides an organized list of ingredients and detailed instructions on how to make the recipe both of which are often missing in community cookbooks. Some recipes are annotated in reproduced handwriting i.e. this was part of the production not a handwritten note from a previous owner. Contents include: Passover Appetizers Soup Bread Pasta and Dairy Salads Vegetables Meat Fish Desserts Cakes Drinks Recipes include: Grandma's Knaidlach; Phyllis Hausman's Gefilte Fish; Passover Luckshen; Matzagne; Sephardic Pastel; Passover Nut Cake; Passover Popovers; Macaroon Jam Slices; Liver Knishes; Salmon Strudel; Beef Boraks; Greek Meat Rolls; Zucchini Finger Strips; Mushroom Tarts; Grandma's Milchig Beet Borscht; Cold Red Raspberry Soup; Kreplach; Green Goddess Soup; Salmon Chowder; Challah; Jewish Rye Bread; Apple Butter Muffins; Old World Black Bread; Bessie's Date and Nut Bread; French Custard Toast; Ice Box Ginger Muffins; Blintzes; Felicia's Chiles Rellenos; California Quiche; Marinated Avocado Mushroom Salad; Eggplant Salad; Spinach with Pine Nut Dressing; Cranberry Relish; Zucchini Pickle; Artichoke Ricotta Pie; Glazed Beets; Ratatouille; Vegetable Frittata Casserole; Spinach-Stuffed Onions; Baked Stuffed Zucchini; Corn Latkes; Barbecued Lamb; Deviled Swiss Steak; Barbecued Beef Liver; Cornish Hens with Bourbon; Baked Chicken with Kumquats; Whitefish Mediterranean; Tuna Crepes; Herring Salad; Homemade Refrigerator Lox; Salmon with Avocado Mask; Hungarian Fish; Fish Turbans with Mushroom Sauce; Chocolate Mousse Angel Pie; Bessie's Cheese Pie; Cassis Pie; Carmel Nut Pear Pie; Sweet Cherry Tart; Fruit Cloud; Gert's Dessert; Gumdrop Cookies; Buttermilk Fudge Brownies; Hamentaschen; Nosher's Delight; Rugelach; Gingerale Strudel; Flora's Cheesecake; Oatmeal Cake; Hanna's Apple Cake; Apple Pie Cake; Prune and Apricot Coffeecake; Cranberry Sauce Cake; Chocolate Waldorf Cake; Poppy Seed Cake; Rum Cake; Coffee Honey Cake; Apricot Filled Cake; Succoth Honey Cake much more.
