These Keto fanatics swear their regimen can reverse a receding hairline. But I remain dubious.

You can kind of understand why they didn't slap "Vollrath" on the booklet's cover. It sounds too Tolkien-ish for domestic pursuits.

Yes, all our foodstuffs were lovingly prepped by off-duty nurses. That's why our chicken soup is 50% more therapeutic than that of our leading competitor.

All or most of these food photos are likely the work of Albert Gommi. I have a dollar paperback called A Picture Treasury Of Good Cooking which features many of the same pictures. They've popped up in mid-century promos from many other companies, too.

It's nice that Mrs. America is so well-trained that dinner matches her outfit and the kitchen accessories.

I doubt that anything was ever cooked in this kitchen. Look at how spotless it is. Probably no human being set foot in it once it was completed, aside from the photographer.

We had no seasonings back in those days, but we did have cat shakers, and Art Deco.

There's lots more about the Guardian line here.

If your chicken needs both socks and ankle bracelets, you're probably taking your work a little too seriously.

Is it just because of the way the photo's cropped that the loaf of bread in the oven looks big enough to feed forty people?

Some more interior pages. Recipes were on the opposite pages for some of these dishes. Sadly, not for the square cherry-pie thing. I'm reasonably sure that's chicken on the lower right.

The directions basically wanted you to cook each brunch component separately in this thing, I guess... cleaning it between each use and then doing the arrangement at the end. Yeah, I'm pretty sure no one did this so long as they had at least a couple of burners and fry pans on hand.

Along with recipes and care instructions, there's a guarantee statement and a space in back where a mail-in was torn off. So this probably came with some purchased cookware.
