They were given to vendors to promote the product within the establishment. Probably from the 40s or 50s. Here is mine.

Thanks Mike I thought that was what it was. Y-B stands for Yocum Bros. but I was wondering what the B-Y's means. Is yours two sided like this one or blank backed. I really like your memorabilia room. Mine isn't as neat looking as yours but it was at first until I got more items then room. D.

Ah, the age-old dilemma for the true collector -- never enough room!

Thanks for the kuddos on the room, I used to be far less organized, but took the on the reorg two summers ago.

Dynarl - I have the same exact sign and mine is two sided. One side baseball and the other football.

I would think that the "B-Y's" stands for "Be Wise" Buy Y-B Cigars.
