No, I don't think so.
Butter Krust is a common name and different bread products used that name for decades. I would guess that ad was from the 50s.
With D304, Butter Krust was just a type of bread and not the parent company. General Baking was the company. It does look like Butter Krust was the most popular type of bread they had since it's mentioned the most across the 5 backs.
I've had different butter krust ads and very few are related to D304, but there aren't many that are directly related. There's an ad that mentions the cards.
It might be a "distant relative" of the same company or maybe not. That would take some research. I think I remember a mid century company out of texas that used the name.
If you take a look on ebay, you'll see Butter Krust out of PA, TX, and WI. Interesting that the logos all have a similar look.
Anyhow, that's my opinion.
