Cool item, but likely a companion piece, rather than a 'pack' / 'wrapper'. The stamps were distributed by Signal Oil in '38. Since they made it clear on the back of the stamp album that they were responsible, it would make sense that such a 'wrapper' would have a similar mark (or no advertising at all) , rather than for a different business. The Val Strough envelope appears to be for game tickets. Several different tickets envelopes from the period are known to exist..... One could argue that in order to drive a Chevrolet, you would need gas and that would be a tie-in, but that is probably a stretch. Still a cool piece
