My husband says it is:
"A Cookery Book Edited by the New York Finnish Women's Cooperative,
Sponsored by the Finnish Social Publishing Company, Fitchburg Mass."
If a person read Finnish, this would make an interesting source for an
anthropological study of foodways and the integration of immigrants into a
new culture. (Yes, I'm an anthro major)
