The contents are divided into fourteen chapters including, meat, egg, fish, cheese, fruit and nut, club and layer, novelty, open-face sandwiches and butters. Many of these sandwiches sound delicious and would be acceptable today but there are some which, to my mind, sound utterly disgusting such as the Norway filling which comprises of tinned tomatoes, chopped dried beef, cream cheese and a beaten egg all boiled together until it reaches a spreading consistency, or the Liveraisin - cooked liver, raisins, celery, grated onion all mixed up with mustard, mayonnaise and chili sauce. A very scarce volume.

Florence Abigail Cowles (April 7, 1878 - August 22, 1958) was an American journalist and cookbook author. She worked on the editorial staff of Cleveland's daily newspaper, The Plain Dealer, from 1917 until her retirement in 1944. Her 1928 publication, Seven Hundred Sandwiches, along with its later revisions, is a frequently cited source regarding the early development of American sandwich varieties that are now widely prepared and eaten.

Her next published book was Seven Hundred Sandwiches, a recipe book published by Little, Brown and Company in 1928. (An abridged edition, entitled Five Hundred Sandwiches, was published in London by Chatto & Windus in 1929; a revised and enlarged edition, entitled 1001 Sandwiches, was published by Little, Brown and Company in 1936.) These books were well received in their era—Good Housekeeping, in reviewing Seven Hundred Sandwiches in March 1929, names the cookbook in a problem-solving column, calling it "helpful" and praising its "multitude of suggestions", while Washington, D.C.'s Evening Star reviewed 1001 Sandwiches equally glowingly in 1936, lauding Cowles for placing "the gems of her collection at the disposal of the public" and commenting favorably on the book's "almost limitless variety". Since that time, Cowles has remained an important source of information regarding sandwich-making in this era: her work is cited multiple times in The Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America, and her recipes appear in less formal settings also, as local delis, cooking advice websites, and online magazines refer to her books for historical information about the origin or development of specific sandwich varieties.

Not for aggressive dogs but no stuffing is super!
Size: 5 Pack
I've bought these several times but have the attitude that toys are disposable. One of my hounds will drop right through then to pull out the squeaker before losing interest. My other hound wants to love them. Glad there is no stuffing to get all over the house but they will tear quickly.

worth the price !
Size: 5 Pack, Size: 5 Pack
Best toys for our livestock puppies since they have been getting into our outdoor things which isn’t their faults but i figure I would get these small squeaky animals toys and they are obsessed and love playing tug a war with them! They’re super soft, the quality is amazing cause these puppies are tough chew monsters, love the squeaky sound it makes and the patting are suitable as well! Definitely recommend this especially for the price and how fast shipping was !

Solid dog toys HOWEVER...
Size: 5 Pack
Got these toys for our collie-retriever. He loves them and plays with them a lot and will even get them out in the middle of the night to play with them. Since there's no stuffing you can't throw them very far but they are good for tug-of-war and really soft. The one downside, while they techically are durable and hold up to rigorous chewing, they are not impervious as our little man finally disembowled Mr. Lion after a few months of playing with him. (Serated the lining with his teeth.) Still highly recommend.

Not very durable
Size: 5 Pack
They’re a great toy for the dog. However, if the dog is bigger, they are very easily destroyed.

Hold up to a heeler!
Size: 5 Pack
I have a red heeler who destroys chew toys in quickly. I was extremely happy with these ones. They are made of thicker material and even after he chews the squeaky piece out, I can play tug of war with them without them ripping apart. The price for the quality is the best I have found in a long time.
