I have 4 of these photo folders that appear to be from a dealer around 1968. Has anyone seen something like these before. I find no dates anywhere.
The open view scanned as a blue framing, but it actually is silver. They are 6" by 5". ![]() ![]() |

That's a 1964 Campaign Slogan.
Are they all identical & mounted in those frames? Their edges look rough cut..are they made out of paper,thicker cardstock or cardboard? Being so small,I think they came from a ceiling dangler. Either that or they are a car/counter top topper with ajoining panels. |

They are made from a thick cardstock, are rough cut edges, and are all identical.
Each one by itself is not mounted in any frame. They are designed to stand up (I believe) on a desk, with a picture inserted on the right side of the bottom pictured scan. (That sounds funny, does it make sense?) |

I didn't know the frame was actually attached to it,so yes that makes sense.
I think that's a photo holder that was given out at auto shows.I've read Chevrolet traditionally had girls wandering their show exhibits,(or sometimes set up with a special prop like the Monza Jr Go-Kart say in 1964),with Polaroid cameras taking pix of visitors.Then they'd give them the pic in one of these folders. They also did the same thing at the National Sales Convention and took pix of the dealers, factory guys etc. Neat little piece of autoshow/convention history! |
