Antoinette Pope School Cookbook First Edition/1st Print 1948 Signed

A collectible first edition/first print cookbook featuring recipes and cooking techniques by Antoinette and Francois Pope, published by The Macmillan Company, New York, 1948. Known for comprehensive recipes and detailed instructions. It also was an early cooking school that offered classes to the public. There are various various printings/editions available from different years. Some partial inside pages shown in above photos.  The book is indicated to be Francois Pope's office copy on the cover image. Inside it is also signed by both Antoinette and Francois, and there is a written indication that Pork sausage not in index.
