Spiral Bound. Condition: Fair. Illustrated by Brisebois, Wendy Hart (illustrator). First Edition. "Early in 1981, The Sun challenged creative cooks with a recipe contest. The response was overwhelming. Cottage home economists sifted and sorted over 2,500 entries. Testing took several weeks and a final marathon cook-off in the Cottage kitchen decided the eventual winners. All the recipes were outstanding, but with a limited number of prizes, we had to single out just a few for initial publication. This book is a further selection. By popular request, also included are favorites from our Supercook series and other cooking features which have appeared in recent years in The Sun Food Section." - Introduction. This copy was wet at some point so its pages undulate moderately. Unmarked with average wear. A worthy working copy. ; Illustrations; 8vo.

Plastic Comb. Condition: Good. First Edition. 152 pages. Large oblong book measuring 10" x 14.5". "Because war censorship forbade publicity there is a widespread lack of knowledge of the outstanding production job for the war effort done by British Columbia industry. Few British Columbians - certainly very few Eastern Canadians, United States business men or British Empire industrialists - realize the extent of the accomplishments and the facilities that are now available here for manufacturing of all kinds. This survey has been prepared to place on record the information that is felt should be known. It is in two parts: First, an illustrated news section graphically telling the story of leading manufacturing developments; second, a concise factual compilation of statistics giving complete authoritative basic data." - from title page.
