1949 Schumacher Service Station "bonus stamp"
Just arrived from the recent Heritage auction:
On the back, between "Service Station" and "Wheel Alignment & Complete" is a stamp or wrapper transfer. If I flip the image upside down and horizontally, you can read "Spearmint - Peppermint ...... and Hawaiian Fruit." Does anyone recognize what gum/candy that may be from? |

Looks like it had a stick of Curtiss gum stuck to each card as a bonus.
Here's a bad photo, but you can see how it matches up |

Perfect! Thanks, Justin. It would be interesting to see if other Schumacher backs had the same transfer. Off to look.... Thanks for the comments, Mark and sflayank (I think you are correct about the A grade.) |

Just a quick follow up...
It appears Curtiss gum was attached to the Schumacher cards. Here is another example, courtesy of beckett.com: |
