What is this?

I saw this in an auction(after it ended) last night and not sure what it is? It stated the year
was 1920 and was acquired out of a vending machine for a penny. I've never
seen one before and thought it looked pretty cool.

Looks to me like an advertising card for Exhibit cards... ca 1921. Maybe went on or above the machine that held those cards of the Exhibit Supply Co.

Thanks Frank, it is the same photo of the '21 Exhibits. Makes sense.

I think I'd actually rather have this than the actual exhibit itself. Cool item!!

I saw it too and hoped to get it on the cheap.
Nice pickup to who ever snagged it.
It ended at $542.80
