Front of the newspaper clipping for Cucumber Pepper Relish recipe.
There are no notations of the publication date, newspaper name, nor who submitted the recipe for publication.
There is a reference on the newspaper clipping for the Chili Sauce recipe from the Family Weekly newspaper dated September 6, 1959, which references this recipe. Therefore, I am going to assume that they were printed at the same time.
