1947 oatmeal cookies: are these Sverhoeven crispies???

I wanted cookies. I thought I wanted the fatty Martha Stewart chocolate chip cookies. Then I looked on my bookshelf. I pulled down a few cookbooks. One of them was Anna Olsson Coombs' Modern Swedish Cookbook from 1947. I've been having this thing where I'm collecting 1940s, 50s and 60s cookbooks. I was intrigued by the cover, and since I'm part Swedish, I bought this book.
