My favorite is for a "businessmans lunch" - it is 25 cents and includes a main course (choice of three) and two sides and a drink or you can upgrade to a t-bone with fries and a drink for 35 cents. The book is great reading for me and I love it - it was nice to see it on line!

It's got a whole chapter on baby feeding that is hilarious...but actually a good reference book for old timey cookin'!
