Recreated from an original mid-century novelty gift-book edition, Cooking to Kill! The Poison Cook-book preserves the wonderfully strange humor and mock menace of its source. Credited to “Prof. Ebenezer Murgatroyd,” with comic drawings by Herb Roth, the original volume turned culinary convention into a dark joke and captured the irreverent spirit of period novelty publishing. This clutch keeps that historical connection intact, presenting the book as a piece of graphic and cultural ephemera rather than a modern imitation. Darkly comic, eccentric, and collectible, it is made for lovers of vintage books, unusual humor, and the peculiar side of publishing history.
