Neat advertising item produced by the Spurlock & Neal Company.  It measures 6 and a quarter by 3 and a half inches.  There are some stains on the front and back cover so see the scans.  This advertising item was directed to the children of their customers and was a drawing pad.  There are a few drawing with thin paper that could trace the picture.  There are several examples but it may not be complete.

This little carton measures two and a half inches tall and comes from a long ago drugstore in Nashville which I guess appealed to me when I saw it. Fortunately there are less dangerous eye washes to use now.

Nice color litho of an early candy company in Nashville. Measures six by five inches. Edge and corner wear. Nothing on the back. It could be this was an insert in a candy container since the paper stock is different from a regular trade card.
