i am assuming by the pict on the swap details that those little paper pamphlet cookbooks put out by food companies are ok. i love those ,the graphics are so neat.

Pamphlet/advertising cookbooks would be fine! Thanks for asking!

What is the definition of a "vintage" cookbook? thanks

pumpkinvine 03/31/2007 #

I am by no means an expert, but I think of anything before 1970 as vintage.

That sounds about right to me, too, pumpkinvine, although that makes me vintage myself! lol (I was born in '64.)

Well, you're just a little more vintage than me then. I was born in '65!

pollyester and sleepylittlemouse, your cookbooks are in the mail! Hope you like them!

I mailed my two cookbooks yesterday, one to California and one to Alabama. Since mine were not pamphlets but books, I chose to send them media mail to save a little money -- which means they may take a couple of weeks or more to arrive (though my experience with media mail has been that about a week to ten days is the usual time). Please be patient, Karine and Livia!

My books are heading out tomorrow. Sorry not sooner, but things have just been so busy I haven't been able to get to the post office before closing...so a special trip is in order tomorrow! I will be mailing media mail, as like Robin mentioned below, mine are also books rather than pamphlets. They should be there soon. Thank you for your patience! :-)

I sent mine out at the last moment via priority mail this evening.
