When you ordered an "All Star Sundae" with your favorite toppings or flavors, 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 Store.

 The top left of this magazine ad has an illustration of an Ed Mathews statuette that has color applied to it. To the right separated by the April 27 - May 3, weekly special, a Strawberry Sundae, is the breakdown of the cash prizes. The bottom right are the "Weekly Specials Featured," three weeks from May 4 to May 24, each illustrated with a Big League Statue behind it.
