1950s American recipes are indeed horrifying. I’ve got an excellent vintage Good Housekeeping cookbook (none of the recipes are the best but it gives a wide gamut of basics to refer to, if needed). There is a section including aspics, which is just awful.
Surprise! Mayonnaise!
these look like the perfect thing to make and give to somebody who’s day you want ruined. I’d love some of those recipes (of mass destruction)
Highly recommend checking out Vintage Recipes on YouTube.

I would like to see the recipe of that mayo cake(?) in the center.
I (potentially) got you.
Edit: Might be this one https://knoxgelatine.com/ColdSoupsandSalads/CSS2.htm
There are shrimps in it? I thought they just mixed gelatine, yogurt, mayo and some spices. O_o
