Step back into the 1980s American square dancing craze with this highly unique, community-sourced cookbook! Published in 1986 as a Habitat for Humanity fundraiser, "Potlucks & Petticoats" is part recipe collection, part historical archive. It features beloved recipes submitted by square dance clubs worldwide, uniquely credited to the dancer and their local club.
Beyond the kitchen, it acts as a cultural time capsule, offering full-color divider pages with essays on square dancing history, vintage photographs, memorabilia, and dance step diagrams. You'll even find the "Ten Commandments of Square Dancing" printed along the pages! Bound in a classic red plastic comb and featuring original cover art, this is a must-have piece of Americana for folklore enthusiasts and vintage cooks alike.
Item condition Fair to Good vintage condition. The red plastic comb binding is fully intact with no broken teeth, and covers show vibrant color with mild edge wear. Pages exhibit mild age-toning. Please note: There is a prominent liquid stain on the bottom corner/lower edge of the first section (affecting early pages and dividers), and several colorful sticky notes from a previous owner are attached to the page edges.
