It took me a while, but I finally found a month of Marvel Comics that used that Aurora models ad on the back cover, May 1966. I broke out my Tales Of Suspense #77 and measured the Ruth drawing and the Dempsey drawing. They are both exactly 2 inches wide, but the Dempsey is slightly taller than the Ruth. The Ruth is about 1 and 5/16" x 2", the Dempsey is about 1 and 7/16" x 2". Are yours a different size? There is a seller on eBay with an Aurora Jim Brown "card" that wants $50 for it. That is why I thought someone would go through the trouble of cutting these off of a beat up 1966 comic book and then gluing them onto a piece of random cardboard and then trying to pawn them off as a "card" at a profit.
