Vintage 1951 Betty Crocker’s Picture Cook Book First Edition, Seventh Printing. A true classic and highly collectible cookbook featuring mid-century recipes, illustrations, and kitchen guidance from General Mills and McGraw-Hill. This early printing is one of the most sought-after versions by collectors and home cooks alike. Hardcover with iconic red and white decorative covers. This book shows significant age-related wear, consistent with a well-used mid-century kitchen reference. Cover wear includes scuffing, fraying at corners and spine edges, and visible shelf wear. Spine shows heavy wear, softening, and fraying at the head/foot. Some interior pages have stains, discoloration, small tears, and edge wear. A few pages are loose or partially torn at the binder holes. Some pencil marks present. Despite cosmetic wear, pages remain readable and intact throughout, and the historical charm of this vintage cookbook is well preserved.
