This is a retro-recipe book written by my late mother, Billie, (Agnes) Dunninger which was never published until now. It contains wonderful recipes from the 1930's,1940's,1950's, and 1960's that can be applied to today's cooking menus, as well as many Dunninger secret recipes. Billie's husband, DUNNINGER, her family, and friends have enjoyed her cooking greatly. I wanted to share these recipes with the world as well as great photos of my Mentalist father, Joseph Dunninger, and some of their movie star friends as: Tony Curtis & Janey Leigh, Lucy, Bob Hope, and more. Houdini and his wife are also in several rare photos. I hope you enjoy these great dishes as much as we do. Maxine Dunninger Hohneker -Editor & Co author.
