SCRAPBOOK RECIPE

Overview

Book with a grey rectangular cover and a badly broken dark blue spine. Inner pages have one side as graph paper and the other as lined pages. The book appears to have formerly been a science exercise book but now has many newspaper cut outs of recipes glued to each page.

It also contains many loose recipes and household tips on cut outs from papers and typed pieces of paper. Some pages of the book still have scientific experiments written on them.

Historical information
