About this Item

See photos for condition details. Softcover, original wraps with text pages staple bound. Front cover and first page is missing the upper right edge. Undated publication from the infamous Johnson Smith and Company, who is known for selling everything from rubber chickens to whoopie cushions to x-ray specs. In 1931 they produced a book (catalog) entitled The Book of Forbidden Knowledge - which promised magical things, all for the price of your allowance. One of the items advertised was this book: "The Book of Great Secrets: Valuable Money Making Recipes", which contains everything from recipes for drinks to cures for whooping cough to a new method of embalming. No publication date listed but Johnson Smith and Company moved to Detroit in 1930 and this address is listed on the back cover. Pages are quite tone due to age and poor quality of paper used. Book is been placed in a protective mylar bag for safekeeping.
