This February 1936 issue of “Recipe of the Month” Magazine is one of those pieces that instantly pulls you in—the kind you notice from across the room.
The cover features a bold, oversized lattice pie front and center, with a playful colonial-era baking scene behind it. It’s a wonderful mix of early American styling and 1930s advertising charm, created during a time when home baking and recipe contests were a big part of everyday life.
Inside, the booklet is filled with period recipes and colorful food photography, along with promotional content tied to a nationwide baking contest—with prizes ranging from kitchenware to a 1936 Chevrolet. It’s a great snapshot of both Depression-era home life and the marketing style of the time.
Pieces like this are increasingly sought after for display—especially for kitchen decor, baking themes, or Americana collections. The cover alone makes a standout framed piece.
