This selection of cookbooks from the 1820s shows some of the fine print quality of the period. To reach customers far and wide, Jan Longone publishes a catalog of the books available through her store. Much of her business is done by phone, with collectors and customers who are searching for a particular book or genre of cookbooks.

The pineapple on the table, she adds, was a symbol of hospitality in the period this book refers to.
