Please let us know if you find a Hartley SB. There is also presumably one more ad back for that card-- the scarce Merchant's Bakery from Norfolk VA. Only a few examples from the set have been found, but they match up with the other sets from 1917.

Lovely. Exactly what I wanted to hear haha. Thank you for confirming that Hartley should indeed have a Standard Biscuit example. I will be sure to let you know if I find one. I'm still hoping to find the second ever Weil Baking Hartley, let alone the first ever Standard Biscuit!

Is the Blank Back mislabeled, or am I misunderstanding what a Mendelsohn is?
