Description
Minneapolis: Loring Liquor Store, 8211. Staplebound. Good. Staplebound. 5.1/2” x 3.1/2”. 16pp. Staple-bound booklet with brown paper wraps, printed in black. Some age toning and minor staining to cover. Rust to staples. Pages are free of marks and notation. Binding is sound. A charming mid-century cocktail recipe booklet issued by Loring Liquor Store, located at 1401 Nicollet Avenue, Minneapolis, MN. The store, likely named after the nearby Loring Park, advertised "Fine Wines and Liquors" and offered "Free Fast Delivery," a convenience that speaks to the post-Prohibition liquor trade's evolution in the Twin Cities. This 16-page booklet includes a wide array of classic mixed drink recipes, from the Bronx and Clover Club cocktails to the Gin Rickey and El Presidente. The foreword encourages experimentation in drink mixing, embracing a relaxed approach to proportions. The presence of a two-letter phone exchange ("MAin 8911") suggests a pre-1960s publication date, when such dialing conventions were still in use. An excellent piece of Minneapolis ephemera, reflecting both the drinking culture and advertising style of the mid-20th century.

ABOUT THIS BOOK: Charlie Jane Anders, the nationally bestselling author of All the Birds in the Sky delivers a brilliant new novel set in a hauntingly strange future with #10 LA Times bestseller The City in the Middle of the Night. WOULD YOU GIVE UP EVERYTHING TO CHANGE THE WORLD? Humanity clings to life on January a colonized planet divided between permanently frozen darkness on one side, and blazing endless sunshine on the other. Two cities, built long ago in the meager temperate zone, serve as the last bastions of civilization but life inside them is just as dangerous as the uninhabitable wastelands outside. Sophie, a young student from the wrong side of Xiosphant city, is exiled into the dark after being part of a failed revolution. But she survives with the help of a mysterious savior from beneath the ice. Burdened with a dangerous, painful secret, Sophie and her ragtag group of exiles face the ultimate challenge and they are running out of time.
