Scans of the actual manuscripts!! I think book binders would enjoy these as well- it even includes the covers inside and out.
Here's the first batch I'm drooling over:
Giovio, Paolo,
(1483 - 1552)
De pesci romani / tradotto in volgare da Carlo Zancaruolo.
Publication Info: Venetia,1560.
Contributed By: Harvard University, MCZ, Ernst Mayr Library

And doing a browse by year, I was able to pull up all titles from the first available printed in 1480-1699.

Please note, these are not all directly food related, but I feel much of the information would have a definate impact on diversity of diet.
In joyous service,
