Notes

Only the end of this recipe is in the box: it’s page 30 of the same small typed cookbook as Pumpkin Pie (Second Recipe), on the back of that page. The title, crust and filling were on page 29, which hasn’t turned up in the scans so far, so the name here is just a description.

The first line is trimmed at the top edge of the page but is still readable.
