Orange Glazed Canadian Bacon from Go Creative with Minute Maid (1971)

I love to sit down with a stack of vintage advertising pamphlets and recipe booklets. Admire the design and layout. Put a sticky note or two on recipes that don't include gelatin or prunes. Scan spot illustrations to sprinkle into an upcoming issue of The Hungover Gourmet (New issue coming in spring 2023!). And then there are just the eyesores. The booklets that definitely arrived in my office as part of a lot purchased long ago. I'm looking at you 'Go Creative with Minute Maid' (Coca Cola Company, 1971). With your three pound slab of Canadian Bacon and black type on purple and orange stained glass. Get the hell out of here. Click picture for full size image. – Dan Taylor
