<p>[QUOTE=&quot;pearlsnblume, post: 4350996, member: 141&quot;]Some old cook books sell. Some don&#039;t. The most popular one IMHO is the one called the Crockers pie cover which is not a pie book. It has a photo on the front that is like a pizza pie cut into slices with all different photos. They are a favorite especially at this time of year. Binder or hardcover they are a fave.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have found over time that the cook books that did not sell years ago, are starting to sell because people want what their mother had but the cook books can fall apart very easily due to age and wear.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Settlement Cook book, is a good seller when you have the really old version or if it is the war time one. I have one that is falling apart and I use it when I sell bookends as a prop.&nbsp; In fact war time cook books do sell nicely in spite of condition. Things that discuss rationing are good. Also some canning books or booklets sell well. Of course sell well is relative, so far I have not gotten rich from my books.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a bunch of those old recipe booklets from products for flour, sugar etc that I plan on listing together as a lot.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have an addiction to buying old cook books, I need a 12 step program. I just bought more today. Oy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
