Item Description
First is 2x4x1.25”deep cardboard mailing box with a “Chief Wolf Paw” mailing label from the Wrigley Building, Chicago. Light general wear but fine. Next is 3.5” double folded sheet of paper that was inserted with the final premiums. This reads “Dear Member: Chief Wolf Paw’s Helpers Have Left. Therefore, No More Lone Wolf Articles Will Be Distributed In Exchange For Gum Wrappers” followed by Chief Wolf Paw name and address. Light wear on paper edges and minor creases but Fine. Only the second or third we’ve seen of this notice. Third item is an adjustable ring in brass. Lower bands have a pair of wavy arrow designs while top of each band has a triangular cut-out and mounted on the top is a figural image of a Thunderbird. The Thunderbird image was used on some of their other premiums and this is likely a Chief Wolf Paw issued ring although we’ve never seen any paperwork documenting it as such. In fact, this is the only example of the ring we’ve seen. Nice clean brass finish. All three pieces are rare.
