1934 Butterfinger
I have become interested in this set and have bought a few (I posted the Gehrig in the thread about him). I have seen the ad variation as well, and those indicate that a baseball picture is free with a 5 cent Butterfinger candy bar. Does anyone know how these were actually distributed? These are so thin and susceptible to damage that I can't see how they would have been included with the candy bar. I have not seen any with creases from being folded. Did kids send in a wrapper for a free picture? Does anyone have an envelope in which these were mailed? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
