Somewhat interesting thing about that ashtray/candy tray Al--- it shows both Jack Lamabe and Al Jackson as pitchers. Lamabe was traded to the Redbirds on July 16, 1967 for a player to be named later, who ended up being Al Jackson three months later (10/13/67). Jackson was unceremoniously dumped the day after the World series ended.
