Got this from a 1930s Washington era scrapbook. This was loose inside of it. Are these common?

James,

I have no idea about the rarity of your item there.
It appears to be a premium from the Hecht Co., which appears to have been a Wash DC area retailer located at the Hecht Company Building, Seventh & F Streets, Northwest, Washington, DC.
