Grandma Rose's Robin Hood Recipe Cards

Grandma Rose's Robin Hood Recipe Cards

Alex Roose

2026

This collection is a digitization of part of my great-grandmother's recipe collection. The box contains over 100 cards, some handwritten and some printed. I elected to digitize these thirty cards, which were all produced and distributed by Robin Hood Flour Mills in the 1940s and 1950s. The cards were included with bags of Robin Hood flour sold in American grocery stores. They are united as a collection by this shared provenance and a shared design: all of the cards share an identical border, illustration, and format, although the recipe on each is unique.
