it was mounted with a "lifelike
miniature" of a big League baseball
star. "Try out your artistic
skills. Paint color on these white
plastic miniatures - charming lifelike statuettes
of famous American and National League
All Star Ball Players" and You may win
one of 266 cash prizes. Contest Rules,
instructions and entry blanks were made
available free at any Tastee-Freez

- May 3, weekly special, a Strawberry
