This is a fold-out pamphlet titled "Virginia Dare Wine Recipes and Cook Book". I have been unable to find any reference to when it was printed or where it was distributed. The only reference I was able to locate was basing on the '27 Finest American Wines' which was mentioned in a 1937 New Yorker Magazine. The company name on the reverse is noted as Garrett & Co., Inc., Brooklyn, NY. There is no printing date. The bottle shown on the reverse is a pre-screw cap type which was used in the 1930's.
