Item Description
7x10” mailer with typed address label with return address reading “Tom Mix/Ralston Straight Shooters Checkerboard Square St. Louis.” Mailer has handling creases and bit of tan tone. VG. Comes with 6-1/8x8.5” die-cut card holding complete makeup kit consisting of artificial black mustache and goatee, cardboard glasses and eye patch, cloth fake nose, 2 makeup tins (red, black with “TM” brand and checkerboards around edges), and plastic teeth. Also included is 2-sided 4.25x7” instruction sheet titled “How To Use Tom Mix Makeup Kit.” Cartoon illustrations give suggestions for faces which by today’s standards would be politically incorrect as one is titled “Mammy Mandy Lou.” Another is titled “Groucho,” based on Groucho Marx. Date at bottom appears to be 1-40. Die-cut card holding kit was originally in generic glassine bag but that disintegrated and has been removed. Remainder of contents are N. Mint. Included is first seen 1.5x5” paper reading “Many Thanks For Sending In Your Entry To Our Contest. We Are Sorry You Did Not Win One Of The Dollar Bills. Just The Same Everybody Is A Winner In This Contest And We’re Sending Your Surprise Gift With This Note.” Rare, especially so with this inserted paper. From the Joe Gura Premium Collection.
