Aloha Loaf Recipe Card Front
Front of the recipe card for Aloha Loaf.
The lead-in reads
A fantastic fruit loaf that is a favorite of both Mrs. Helen Barrot of California and Pauline Bogush of Connecticut and should really please Mary Frambach of New Hampshire.
Helen Barrot was born on 25 Jul 1912 and died on 7 Jun 1999. Pauline Bogush was born 8 Mar 1921 in Holyoke, Maine and died 20 Jan 2006 in Hartford, Connecticut, USA. It appears that Mary Frambach is still living, therefore, no information regarding her other than what is listed above will be shared.
Based on the above, the recipe had to have been printed prior to 1999.
