Los Angeles.: Quon-Quon Company.. 1942-1944.. Two 16 pp. miniature booklets (4 3/4 x 4 inches) from a series published by Quon-Quon Company of Los Angeles in the 1940s. "Chinese Recipes" second edition copyright 1942; "Chinese Dogs" (illustrated) copyright 1944. Slight indentation to front cover of Recipes booklet, otherwise very good condition. The Recipe booklet is stuffed with brief paragraph long instructions for making a full range of Chinese food, including 'Kettle-Cooked Duck.' The introduction states: "this second edition of Chinese Recipes is made necessary by public demand, and by other vital considerations. For example, several recipes given in the first edition, and which call for ingredients not obtainabale during the present world-crisis, have been eliminated." The Dogs booklet is illustrated with black and white sketches and has a section "Show-points of Chinese Dogs, and Distinguishing Characteristics." A jaw-dropping gift for someone expecting more. .
