Instructions and recipes
Up for sale is a rare, 100% original Victorian-era instruction and recipe sheet for the "Mt. Washington" Ice Cream Freezer, manufactured by The White Mountain Freezer Company, Inc. in Nashua, New Hampshire.

The reverse side, titled "Ice Cream A Universal Favorite," includes a wonderful collection of authentic period recipes:

• Chocolate Ice Cream (noting the use of vanilla chocolate or Ceylon cinnamon)
• Strawberry Ice Cream (using cheesecloth to strain the fruit pulp)
