5.0 out of 5 stars Soda Fountain and ice cream fun, July 25, 2010
This 1973 book traces the history of ice cream from its roots to today. It features the early street vendors that sold ice cream including the Good Humor Man, and Eskimo Pie. It has the history of soda fountains and soda jerks. And it also has the lingo that soda jerks used, a dictionary of sorts, including such phrases as "City Juice" (water), "bucket of hail" (glass of ice", or a "George Eddy" (non-tipping customer). And then it has recipes for tons of great treats. Really a fun book for fans of old soda fountains. Its a big book at 206 pages, hardback with colorful dustjacket. I posted a picture of the jacket above.
