Mine is the second edition (1895) I also have Henley's twentieth century home and workshop formulas (1920).

Hi Tom  :thumbup:

The other three in the series are just as good . So what are you brewing up Tom , or are you just a collector ?

I have a quite a few old "receipts" books. Many of the ingredients are either no longer available or are now known to be very unhealthy.

Rob, I've got a shelf full of those red books in your picture to the left. There are all sorts, from planing and shaping to munitions.
