This Maurice Carter stuff is like Christmas come early, thanks for the stories and pics. He was in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders regiment with my father. His ads on radio were well known in southern Ontario, the tag line was "Maurice Carter what a great, great guy!" sung in old ragtime fashion. There are still U-haul type rental trucks in the area with Carter on them, not sure if there is a connection though.

Stumbled on this through google, ebay slot car find.
