OLD FAMILY FAVORITES: Springdale Bicentennial Cookbook 1806-2006 is a regional cookbook of favorite recipes from the residents of Springdale, Ohio, as well as  those submitted by employees of its police, fire and local government departments.

This cookbook features a variety of recipes such as Fish Fillets Poached in Wine, Potato n' Broccoli Supreme, Cinnamon Sour Cream Coffee Cake, Baked Praline French Toast Casserole, and Grandma's Award-Winning Corn Relish. Each recipe also includes the name of its submitter. The book includes hand-colored drawings from local elementary students, with the artist's name, age, and grade displayed alongside their work.

This 290-page book features multiple page numbering sequences that repeat with each chapter. It contains over 275 recipes and has dimensions of 8 ½” x 5 ½”. The comb-bound cookbook is in good condition without any tears or bent corners. There is browning near the edges of the cover.

Community cookbooks are more than just recipe collections; they offer a unique look into American society and culture of the past...

Originally created and used by women's groups for charitable purposes, these cookbooks contain valuable information on cooking techniques, kitchen tools, and household advice. They also serve as unofficial historical records, providing insight into the norms and values of the time period.

The first of these charity cookbooks in America, A Poetical Cookbook by Maria J. Moss, was published in 1864 to raise funds for injured Union soldiers during the Civil War.

Today, community cookbooks continue to be successful fundraisers for Junior Leagues, church groups, school organizations, hospital auxiliaries and other charitable groups across the country.
