Description

Paperback staple bound cover has some wear. Pages are clean and the binding is secure.

This vintage pamphlet from the Fleischmann Treasury of Yeast Baking series offers a delightful glimpse into mid-20th century American baking culture. Published in the post-war era when convenience foods were gaining popularity, it celebrates the timeless art of bread-making with easy-to-follow recipes for batter breads – a category that includes classics like beer bread, corn bread, and Boston brown bread. Written by Mary Lynn Woods, likely a home economist or food writer employed by Fleischmann, the pamphlet would have been a promotional tool for the company’s yeast products. Beyond its practical recipes, it serves as a charming artifact of an era when major food brands sought to engage homemakers through educational outreach and recipe booklets. For collectors, this well-preserved copy in acceptable condition offers a nostalgic window into a bygone era of domestic life and food marketing.
