Vincent Price recipes

  I have a collection of Vincent Price cookbooks...
  
  Mr. Vincent Price was an excellent cook, and his cookbooks are treasures that I'm privileged to have on my shelf! In many cases, the style of recipe format in the books is rather different from what we're used to these days, so I'm translating for a more modern audience.
  
  The books:
  
  --> "Treasury of Great Recipes"* - originally published in 1965, I think, but apparently was reprinted in 1995 although I've never seen a copy from then.
  --> "Come Into The Kitchen"* - published in 1969, also written with Mary.
  --> "A National Treasury of Cookery" - a five volume set. Titles of books are: Recipes of Early America; of the Young Republic; of the Westward Empire; of Ante Bellum America; of Victorian America. They're smallish books, about 5x8 format. Some of the recipes are duplicated in "Come Into The Kitchen."
  --> "Cooking Price-Wise" - Mr. Price hosted a British cooking show in the early 1970s called "Cooking Price-Wise" and I managed to get ahold of the slim companion paperback to the show! The photo used for this public cookbook is from the cover.
  
  *You can find both of these pretty easily on EBay - well worth the purchase!”
