Can anybody help me with what this is and whether it is worth anything? I got it "American Pickers" style at one of those crazy semi-antique yard/house sales that we sometimes drive by in upstate New York on 4th of July Weekend. It was with a whole mess of other clippings and photos from the 1930s and 1940s. It didn't cost me a whole lot, so I imagine it is basically not worth a whole lot. But any information about what it is would be appreciated.

I had to "double scan and crop" it to make it onto my scanner (excuse the bad crop line in the middle of it), since it is pretty large -- maybe 12" x 18" or thereabouts -- paper thin, with a little hole at the top as if it were meant to be hung by a nail in a store years ago. Looks like it may have once been pasted or shellacked onto a piece of cardboard years ago, and shows evidence of tape on the back to fix what looks like was a small tear.

Again, any information at all would be appreciated. Thanks!
