Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

OLD FASHIONED THRIFTIES - WHEN EVAPORATED MILK PROMISED A BETTER AMERICAN KITCHEN A vivid survivor from the golden age of American corporate test kitchens, produced by Carnation Company at the height of mid-century convenience cooking. Issued as both recipe collection and promotional showcase, the booklet reflects the optimistic domestic culture of the 1960s, where molded salads, casseroles, cream soups, freezer desserts, and 'easy-does-it' meals defined modern entertaining and family dining. The booklet presents dozens of richly photographed recipes built around Carnation Evaporated Milk, emphasizing economy, convenience, and presentation. Recipes range from gelatin salads and 'Freeze It and Forget It Fruit Salad' to 'Green Beans with Water Chestnuts,' 'New England Clam Chowder,' creamy casseroles, pies, whipped desserts, and holiday 'thrifties.' The saturated color photography, warm kitchen staging, and stylized food presentation strongly capture the visual language of postwar American advertising and supermarket culture. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Stapled pictorial wraps. Slim quarto format measuring 9 inches tall. 48 pages with index. Illustrated throughout with bright full-color photographic images of prepared dishes, desserts, casseroles, salads, and serving displays. CONDITION: Bindings are tight and secure. Text is clean; light, even age-toning. Minimal shelf handling wear. Bright and well-preserved with strong color saturation throughout. HISTORICAL CONTEXT - Produced during the peak era of American convenience-food marketing, Carnation's promotional cookbooks helped shape mid-century domestic cooking habits through supermarket distribution and recipe-based advertising. These ephemeral culinary booklets increasingly attract collectors for their nostalgic food imagery, graphic design, and documentary insight into postwar American kitchen culture. Subjects: Carnation Milk, Corporate Cookbooks, Mid-Century Cooking, American Food Culture, Gelatin Salads, Vintage Recipes, Kitchen Advertising, Food Photography, Cookbooks, Americana, Advertising Ephemera, Mid-Century Design.…
