Description
Jane Adams collected recipes and menus from hundreds of produce manufacturers and locales. The collection has been separated into three sections, the largest being Series I, which is alphabetically interfiled, includes product/company fliers, topical information, and cookbooks by title. Series II includes Handwritten recipes and cutouts. Series III consists of menus, sorted by location. Most of the items in the collection were printed with no date; the collection appears to cover the decades of the 1920s through 1950s.
