First printing of the trade edition, preceded five years by the self-published edition. Signed and briefly inscribed by Irma Rombauer on the front free endpaper. Bound in publisher's blue and white plaid patterned cloth, lettered in white and blocked in blue. Near Fine. Light wear to cloth at extremities, faint staining to textblock edges, and occasional marking in the margins. A lovely signed copy of the budget conscious, accessible cookbook that has never been out of print. Instead of listing ingredients before each recipe, this edition integrated them into the instructions, enabling a more casual, conversational style as if Irma herself were there in your kitchen guiding you step by step. Rombauer wanted to make cooking less intimidating for cash-strapped amateur home cooks during the Great Depression, a feat she accomplished as this edition sold more than 52,000 copies by 1941.
