Joy of Cooking, 75th Anniversary Edition, published by Scribner in 2006. This is a first printing of this edition, confirmed by the full number line (1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2) on the copyright page. Photos of the number line are included. The 75th Anniversary Edition is the version many cooks consider the best modern Joy. It restores Irma Rombauer and Marion Rombauer Becker's original voice while retesting the classics: 4,500 recipes in total, 500 of them new. It also brings back the reference material earlier editions cut, including Know Your Ingredients, substitution charts, freezing and canning guidance, meat charts, and John Norton's technique illustrations throughout. Condition: the book is near fine, with clean, unmarked pages, a tight binding that lies open well, and the attached red ribbon marker intact. The dust jacket is present and complete with light edge wear at the spine ends and a few faint specks. There are no tears. Please see all photos. A solid first-printing copy for a cookbook collector, a clean replacement for a worn kitchen copy, or a lasting gift for someone setting up a first kitchen. ISBN 9780743246262. Ships fast and secure. No odor — smoke-free, pet-free, climate-controlled storage.
