Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia: Meat Loaf Mania Events / (The Chestnut Hill Senior Services Center? 1999).
Price: $150.00
Hardcover. First edition. Introduction—"Why Meatloaf?" as if that were a question that needed asking—by event chair Susan Descher Pizzano. Octavo. 32pp. Illustrated, with what we've named the "ecstatic meat loaf" cover motif (sans legs) repeated throughout. Stapled wrappers a trifle soiled, front cover and first leaf with a corner crease, very good or better. Incredibly charming cookbook of recipes from a Chestnut Hill meat loaf contest, proceeds benefitting The Chestnut Hill Senior Services Center; Mayor Ed Rendell was a judge. The 14 recipes were culled from a field of 31 contenders, and are separated into sections: The Winners (Harry F. Bower, Jr.'s "Maria's Meatloaf" took first place); The Notables ("Bishop Fulton J. Sheen's Meatloaf"); and "The Pros" ("Venaison in Pastry" by the legendary Le Bec-Fin's Georges Perrier). No copies in *OCLC*.
