Full Description

All products are now digital download only

This fabulous DVD is crammed full of more than 500 great quality colour images of recipe dishes and food (including 57 from Mrs. Beeton’s cookery books!) in jpeg format that can be used for practically anything you want to!

All of the images on this disc are out of copyright and in the public domain in the UK, US and all countries that follow the same copyright rules, and therefore can be used as many times as you like without paying any royalties or commissions to anyone!

Wow!  That could mean a whole new business for you with very little outlay – just think of the possibilities!

The pictures are all fully named with the publication it’s taken from with date as well as the name of the picture/description, eg. Whys of Cooking 1919 – Custard Pie

All of the images were scanned at 300 dpi and range from around 1000 pixels wide/tall up to over 5000px wide/tall with only one or two being a little smaller than this.

This Recipes & Food disc contains lots of lovely pictures of the completed dishes together with the recipes themselves where it was possible to include them.  There are also other foody pictures from recipe and food books and a few adverts that were in the same books – a veritable feast!

There are recipes for sweets, cakes and puddings as well as for savoury dishes with there being some great vintage tinned salmon recipes, sweetmeat treats, fish and meat dishes and more. Includes several Christmas recipes and pictures too!
