Comments: "Tip Top
Lunch" of Petersburg, W.VA. was made by "Advance Match &
Prtg. Corp.". The picture on the back shows Hitler being hit
over the head by a housewife with a bundle of waste paper and being
bitten by a little dog. It says "Swat The Axis. Save Waste
Paper.". It still has half of its matches.
"V.F.W. Club" of Grafton, W.VA. says on the rear "Keep 'em
flying buy war bonds & stamps.". Inside it is printed with some
good advice on "How to live on $15.00 a week." and it still
has one match inside.
"Gem blades" match book is printed on the inside with the
patriotic phrase "Save waste paper. Save a bundle a week. Save
some boy's life.". It was made by "D.D. Bean & Sons Co."
of Jaffrey, N.H. and still has nearly all its matches.To view other images
