In the front matter and again at the rear the company states that this will be the last large-format catalogue they will issue and that price updates will be offered in the future so this illustrated catalogue should be held for future reference. ~ Internally clean and bright. Original gray linen decorated and titled in black and white with an attractive image of a young confectioner presiding over a stand mixer while holding an elaborate sugar sculpture on a tray.
