"the sheer look" was frigidaire's tagline for its 1957 line of refrigerators, ranges and washer-dryers, and refers to their straight-line, square-cornered, "flat" styling, which was an innovation at a time when major appliances were all rounded and bulgy-looking.

This is really like a filmed recipe booklet, containing meals, jell-o molds, a housewife in an all-metal 50s kitchen, dinette sets, table settings, and, since its sponsored by beatrice, an insistence that as many dairy products as possible be served every day.

To top it off, there is a whole section on ice cream desserts at the end. Out of this world 1964?
