This will make a fine addition for the Yenko stapler.

Mr70,I too love all the dealership items.My latest purchase is a NOS Sport Department banner!Right now I don't have room to disply it all,but would like to build my own dealer display circa 67-69.If you cant't find cars or parts you need this is the next best thing to collect.Sometimes I wonder what gets the most attention...

For several years, yardsticks were one of the more popular items Yenko Chevrolet gave away. I have at least 6-8 different examples in my collection. That is what makes the collecting of Yenko memorabilia so much fun. There is a vast array of promotional items to be had, everything from umbrellas to rain bonnetts, playing cards to perfume, ice scrapers to key chains. License plate frames were another popular item, with numerous different examples to be had. The list is almost endless. Happy hunting, but do beware, as some of the items are starting to be "re-created". Tom
