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

Todd- same size but these stamps have some curl to them.
