But wait! I was out and about and saw a 1944 ed. of the Good
Housekeeping Cookbook, which, indeed, did sport a plaid cover. (I
don't know where MY copy of this is--maybe in a box. It isn't
with the other such "bibles".)

So, actually, GH was in the forefront of such covers, and BH&G
copied them! Looking at my shelves of older books, there was an
earlier GH cookbook (1933--it's buried), that has red and white
stripes on its spine and may turn out to be plaid if I dredge it
out. It is a smaller format though.
