It seems so simple, but--.  About 20 years ago bottles of the French
liqueur ?Grand Marnier? began being sold in America with tiny
(approx. 1.5" square) red booklets (with I think 6 recipes) their necks. The
practice stopped about 10 years ago.

I lost these recipes. I have tried everything to get a copy of that
booklet. I even talked with Seagrams, the American distributor of
Grand Marnier. They were friendly, but no one there had a clue.

There were must have been hundreds of thousands of those little
booklets distributed in this country, yet I have been unable to locate
a single one. It is that booklet - specifically its recipe for 'Grand
Marnier Souffle -- that I want to find. (I'll accept a true copy.)
Thanx.  Zebb

Is this the little booklet that you have in mind?

BAKING with Grand Marnier
Printed in France in 1974
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=821&item=7103033215&rd=1&ssPageName=WD1V

Let me know if this meets your needs.

I notice that your description indicates that the booklet was a bit
smaller than the one on eBay.  Nevertheless, do you think there's any
possibility that the 1974 booklet includes the same recipes?

I did answer you right away, but I stupidly made my answer a
'Comment'. Here is is again:

I cannot tell if the eBay booklet holds the same recipe, but I have
doubts. I got 2 recipes from Grand Marnier's web site and 2 from
Seagrams. None were near the one I'm after. I have to stick with
finding that specific booklet.

Of course I'd be happy so get your recipe, but I've seen so many by
now, and none are what I want. On this search, I'm real fussy. Best
