Collecting Cookbooks - McCall's Cookbooks
McCall's
magazine began in 1870 as The Queen of Fashion, a
publication devoted to fashion news and
the promotion of the company's sewing patterns. It was
renamed McCall's in 1902, and the periodical evolved over the years to
encompass articles and columns on health, cooking,
celebrities, fiction, needle arts, the famous Betsy McCall
paper dolls, and a realm of other items of interest to
women. McCall's ceased publication after 125 years in
March 2001 (when it became Rosie), and although the magazine itself didn't survive, the recipes and cookbooks published
under the McCall's name have not lost favor with the
cooking public.
