Default American Caramel, National Caramel, CA Briggs....

Interesting grouping of ad pieces. They all appear to be from 1925. Briggs must've been a popular company.

I wonder if the e97s might've been packaged in a similar sized cough drop box or if they came with the chocolates that they produced?
A baseball card would've been a nice treat if you were coming down with a cold maybe.

I've always figured that the company dabbled in some kind of candy in addition to the lozenges. It might've been a bit more consistent with the spirit of baseball cards to package the cards with chocolate rather than lozenges.

Thanks for sharing Leon. I always like seeing pieces like this.
