Notes

These clipped recipes for Banana Bread and Banana Nut Bread were originally published in the Baltimore Evening Sun. The article must have been syndicated because the reverse side of the clipping contains information from a Tulsa, Oklahoma newspaper. I can not find any indication of the exact date of publication, but whole beef briskets were $0.98/pound.
