Remember Hamburger Pie?

A huge box just arrived on my doorstep, filled with old cookbooks.  A friend was cleaning out his mother's collection, and sent me so many treasures.

One of my favorites is this Better Homes and Gardens compilation from the fifties. Cleverly bound into a three-ring binder, it is filled with blasts from the past.  I'm happy to say that my mother never cooked up a single one of these dishes.
