NOTE: I recently acquired a wonderful collection of antique cookbooks, receipts books, etc. Some I have offered on already. Some are currently at auction right now, while still others are waiting to be auctioned in coming days and weeks. If you love to collect these old volumes of cookery, “domestic economy,” formularies, etc., I urge you to visit my auctions frequently to see what each new day brings. Thank you for your interest in my books.

DESCRIPTION:

THE TECHNO-CHEMICAL RECEIPT BOOK is one of the largest collections of 19th-century chemical formulations, recipes and processes for commercial and personal use you are ever likely to find. The material in this book was, for the most part, translated from German technical literature, which, according to the editors, “is especially rich in receipts and processes which are to be relied on, most of them having been practically tested by competent men before being given to the public.”

Though this book is 126 years old, the information it contains will no doubt prove quite valuable to artisans, craftspeople, brewers and other professionals of today. Makers of perfume … makers of soap … leatherworkers … those interested in dyeing fabrics, skins and feathers … beer brewers and makers of wines and liquors … old-time processes to make candy confections and chocolates … those interested in antique methods of taking and developing photographs … enamelling … coloring glass and porcelain … paints, glazes and varnishes … metal plating and other forms of metalwork … even folks who are into pyrotechnics, i.e. blasting powder, explosives and fireworks. Chances are, if you like experimenting, inventing, or just doing things “the old fashioned way,” this book is for you.

There are about 7000 different receipts in this one volume, broken out into about 50 separate categories. Below, I have summarized several of those categories in detail to give you a better idea of the wealth of information this book contains. I chose the categories based on what I thought would appeal to the largest audiences, but if you have a specific question about any of the many categories I would be happy to help.
