This vintage recipe hardback also includes articles for the 'Successful Entertaining' including 'A Beauty Routine for Your Party', 'What to Wear' and 'A Beauty Routine for your House'.
It is illustrated throughout with black and white and colour photos.

It is in fair-good condition:
- the cover has some marks, as well as wear and rubbing
- inside there is some foxing throughout but heavier at the beginning, centre and end (see pics)
Otherwise there is no writing, tearing, creasing or dog-earing.
