The Bisquick Art of Roger Bradfield (PART TWO)

More great examples of Roger Bradfield's illustrative talents from the 60's Bisquick cookbook that we featured in our previous post (HERE.) I highly recommend this book if you can find it, aside from the fact that there's still a TON more cute art for you to enjoy, there's lots of super rad and exceptionally tasty recipes too!

The Bisquick Art of Roger Bradfield (PART ONE)

Incredibly cute artwork by Roger Bradfield highlights this Bisquick Cookbook from 1964. Apparently this collection of recipes was compiled by Betty Crocker herself in response to fan requests concerning everything from beginner's luck and old-fashioned favorites, to backyard grilling, desserts, and dishes from faraway places. As delicious as it all sounds, the real stand-out delicacies featured here (for me anyway) are the superbly stylized and rendered illustrations that always make mid century cookbook collecting so much fun! More examples from this great book coming up in our next post too-- yay!

Children's Birthday Assortment

Children's Birthday Assortment is a boxed set of 21 colorful greeting cards from the 50's or 60's, featuring incredibly cute and fully painted lid art and card fronts. Lions eating cotton candy, kids having circus loads of fun, and lots more! Insides of the cards have different games and charming little cut-outs. I have the box, but unfortunately I only have 4 of the 21 cards-- wah!! so let these be a shining example (or teaser) to what the entire set must have been-- wah again! Made in the USA from A Sunshine Card. (I've also included all sides of the beautiful box lid art at the end of the post.)
