Franchot's Lemon Pie Merengue (or so they say!)

I have a booklet titled Foods and Fashions of 1936 that the Fox Crane Theatre (Carthage, Missouri) sold for $1.00 in 1936. It includes a dedication to the recently deceased Will Rogers in the front. The rest of the booklet is all foods and fashions as the title suggests.  A photo of Franchot accompanies the recipe for lemon pie merengue. I think readers of the day were led to believe that movie stars personally provided these recipes, but it's much more likely that whoever created the booklet just paired a star's photograph with a recipe.

It's a neat little souvenir item, so I thought I'd share the Franchot page here and list all of the other actors/actresses featured.
