I mistakenly started his thread in the B/S/T forum. Here's a

Just trying to identify what the item is in the picture. Was it part of a store display? An insert in a magazine? Not sure :( .

I am not familiar with this set, is it cards or wrappers ? Do you have a scan of one of the 18 items from the set ? Looks like neat item

Definitely advertising for the "Berk-Ross" sets you linked to - looks to me like a point of sale window sign. Pretty cool!

Hmm, not sure if I want to sell or keep. Any idea what the value on something like this would be? Scoured the internet but can't seem to find any info on it.

Never seen one before and over 60 years old and somewhat oversized - guessing not too many around, especially in nice shape. No actual cards or players pictured, and not a lot of color would probably keep the value fairly reasonable, though. Wild guess would be in the $30-100 range, maybe? Anyone else have any thoughts?

Are any of the players pictured recognizable? If so, I could see it having some value to it depending on the player.

Nope, doesn't look like any of the players are recognizable:
