Royal Aspic 'Movie' Recipes

I picked this up on eBay for 99 cents, I think. The closest thing I can find to a date on it may indicate it's from 1934. A beautiful little booklet!

Surely about 1934. What wonderfully ghastly pictures they are.

I have a couple of books very like this from one company or the other. I think it must have been a cookery publishing group out for hire with a standard artist and typesetter. Quite the business!

I've got a soft spot for this type of illustration- the colors just grab me.

Must everything be eaten in the form of a loaf?
