Chicago: Dixie-Vortex Company. Very Good. 1936. First Edition. Hardcover. These DIXIE CUP PREMIUMS were given to a patron when they had 12 collectible ice cream lids with miniature photos of stars. After collecting the 12 needed lids required to trade for one photo, most children decided it was better to keep all 12 lids rather than trade them for one photo therefore increasing the high collectibility and scarceness of the premiums. A series of 24 different stars were published for each year along with a special cover. In 1936 8 of the 24 featured stars had 2 separate portraits issued, thus there is a total of 32 in this special set. These full-color large-format premiums feature beautiful artwork and rich color printed on heavy card stock paper. Each premium was designed with a color stripe & two holes along the left edge for easy binding in a scrapbook. Each year the color of the stripe & the lettering changed; thus, although undated, each year's issue is distinctive. The reverse of each 8 x 10-inch premium features black-and-white stills from the star's recent films along with a few short paragraphs about the star. (the front but not the back cover is included). Condition ranges from VG to NF (near fine) . Original owner's information filled in on printed form on verso of front cover. Entertainment, Movie Stars, Hollywood, Cowboys. ; 8vo; 32 pages .
