Condition	The cover shows age and wear: discoloration (yellowed / tanned), stains, soiling, curled. The pages are slightly tanned but are clean and in very good condition. The written notations are minimal. Going through every page, I saw a few but they didn't interfere with reading the recipes. The contributors are mainly PTA members, teachers, administrators, and board / council members. They are named / credited below the recipe they submitted. The book is undated. Some research of the contributors and the history of the schools in Council Bluffs narrows the publication date to 1957-1961 but was most likely printed during the 1957-58 school year. The pages are not numbered but count approximately 140. There is no index of recipes. Since there is no index to provide a picture of, I have included a sample of the titles (see "full description").
