Would be my guess too. Or it could be a fantasy piece/creation using the Dairy Queen statutes. It's the first I've seen of the bags.

The cups are cool. Is there any writing on them?

Larry and Chris

As I mentioned in my first post, the info I got was that they were offered to the cap company first and all others sent to the cap company were destroyed. THN they went to Tastee Freeze

The only thing on the cup is underneath on the bottom. See:

Why do all my photos turn sideways????

[sflayank]

Only makes sense tastee freez 1st
They already had statues and cups for other promotions
Sell the leftovers after the promotion

Thanks Fred. I appreciate the photo - something else to search for. I tend to agree with Larry but who knows at this point

I purchased my first vintage card (58 Topps Mantle) last weekend and this might be the most painful wait for mail... I feel like a 5 year old running to check the mailbox (or shipping notifications) haha

Beautiful, Zach. I hope your eyes enlarge with joy when you catch your first glimpse of your new Mickey. Congratulations, bro. Let us know how you feel about it when you FINALLY get it in the mail!
