The other way : respectfully dedicated to all good housewives
A short 1899 promotional cookbook and gas-appliance catalogue issued by E. Forbes in San Francisco for American housewives, pairing recipes with advertising for gas stoves and heaters. Wood-engraved product cuts show cast-iron gas heaters, burners and ranges in tight elevation, with ornamental feet, pierced grilles, acanthus bases and maker's nameplates usable as Victorian hardware ornament and label shapes.
