I had an incredibly lucky day at the local Goodwill! For the sum of one dollar, I got one of the finest cookbooks ever created, Les diners de Gala by Salvador Dali. Yes, there's a recently published reprint, but, no, no, this is the 1973 hardbound first edition, complete with dustjacket!  (and worth at least 115 times what I paid for it!) Yes, there's some edge wear on the dustjacket, but, the book is clean and the pages are bright. It's also an amazing book overall. There are plenty of illustrations, photographs, and the recipes appear to fine dining classics.
