Durham Turkeys

I'm always buying or looking at old cookbooks. This weekend I bought "The Southern Heritage Plain and Fancy Poultry Cookbook" for $1. It has some great photos and illustrations.


Imagine my surprise when I saw this photo - Bargaining for the "perfect" turkey, Durham, North Carolina 1939. The book was published by Southern Living in 1983.


Well, they have had some turkeys in Durham (I'm sure they still have some) - sure hope they can get that chicken stuff straightened out.
