I have a checkered one that has seven vinaigrettes.. Garlic, Greek, Italian, Mustard, Pineapple-Mint, Red wine and just plain vinaigrette.

well DRATS!!!
not sure if it is the Italian, the red wine or the plain I'm looking for. A friend from Sunday school made it for her daughters graduation party and she is on vacation.

I wouldn't need the mixing directions if you don't mind typing the ingred and amounts
for one of them

No problem.

Vinaigrette
1/3 cup salad oil
2/3 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
2 teaspoons snipped fresh thyme, oregano, or basil, or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, oregano, or basil, crushed
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard or 1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard (optional)

To make it Italian, use oregano and include the mustard. Add 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon celery seed, and 1 glove garlic, minced.

The Italian additions sounded uber-yummy to me! Hope it works out!

You mean, like my mother's new one from 30 years ago?

Of my mother's original one, from 50 years ago?

I have them both.

probably the 50!!! One of the gifts my DH gave me for Christmas the year we were engaged is the all red one which was 23 years ago

THe one from 50 years ago is faaaaaaaar from politically correct today. When that version (we used to call it "Betty Cooker's Crockbook") was printed, women stayed home to raise kids. The text and graphics all reflect those times.
