This is one of two Graham Cracker Pie recipes found in a 1967 edition of "Our Favorite Desserts" from the "Favorites From Home Economics Teacher" cookbook series. This recipe was submitted by Homoiselle House from Hempstead High School of Hempstead, Texas. I am posting these in response to a request, but I have not made either of them.
