Picked this up the other day with some other items but don't know what it is. The paper is thin and old but its around 8x10. Any help would be great. Thanks! -Brad

According to the standard catalog though Blue Ribbon Malts are 5x7 in size, did they come in different sizes as well, as this is 8x10?

? Cut from a Blue Ribbon Malt poster? Best I can come up with...

Thanks Dave! It's not hand cut and in the standard catalog says that being cut from the poster the size is a lot smaller than 8x10. The mystery continues. Lol.

These are actually a series from the late 1940s mostly consisting of stars from earlier decades. I am blanking on the name right now - will try to find it in the SC and come back-

Very cool, thanks for the info Tim. That photo does appear to be used in the Blue Ribbon series. There are some great premiums/cabinets with Blue Ribbon origins. Here are a few I used to own...

and here is a link to a Hornsby from the series...
