I bought it many years ago when I was ardently collecting vintage cookbooks, in the mid '80s as I know it was prior to moving up here to Lancaster because it and some other rare oldies were in a metal footlocker to make sure they were protected.
The bookshop in Pasadena went out of business in the early '90s. They had a huge section of cookbooks and I bought a lot from them. I don't recall how much I paid for it but it has this notation in it, written in pencil before I got it, so it was probably not cheap. Probably around $100.00 or so.
Only 1019 copies were printed in 1938. The book was reprinted in 1952 or 1953 but I don't know how many of those were done.
