Step back into 1981 with this stunning edition of Margaret Fulton’s "Cooking for Pleasure." A true gem from "Australia’s Queen of Cookery," this Octopus Books hardcover is a culinary treasure trove featuring over 550 recipes and 80 vibrant, full-page color photographs that capture the quintessential aesthetic of early 80s dining.
What makes this copy unique is its incredible preservation; unlike many vintage cookbooks from this era, the interior pages remain clean, bright, and free from common kitchen stains, oil splatters, or handwritten notes. It features Fulton’s "Commonsense Way to Good Cooking" section and dual metric/imperial measurements, making it as practical today as it is nostalgic. Perfect for collectors of vintage Octopus manuals or those seeking to own a piece of Australian culinary history.
Item condition: Very Good Vintage Condition. The interior pages are exceptionally clean and free of staining. The glossy hardcover shows minimal shelf wear, with only a very minor bump/paper loss at the top left corner of the spine edge. The binding is firm and the spine is straight.
