The Official Mixer's Manual by Patrick Gavin Duffy, 1940. Truly a magnificent cocktail guide that includes a picture guide to the different glass styles and what cocktail should be served in each glass style to a section on punches, ladies cocktails, and many more incredible vintage cocktail recipes. This hard-cover is a lovely blue color (that has a bit of a "denim" look to it) -- with a bold red cocktail shaker, martini glass and bar spoon and the interior top pages feature a bold red tone. This book came in a few different colors including orange. Truly a magical mixology guide.

Binding: Hard Cover. Blue
Book Condition: Good vintage condition with mild signs of age. We like to be thorough when it comes to our vintage books, so here's a full summary:

2) There's yellowing to the interior of the book that occurs to paper over the course of decades
3) There's a dark spot/stain on the side pages of the book (see photo #7)
The binding is very secure/tight. Overall, this vintage book is in good condition with mild signs of age/wear. Truly a magical mixology book.

If purchasing multiple pieces, we'll combine shipping to a single box (or as few boxes as possible) and will automatically reimburse you for all shipping overages paid.
