Possibly a give-away to customers to brush off after a ride in the open car? Anyone have an opinion on value? Overall, it's in nice condition. Thx, Dave Dave

I've seen (and own) similar ones with Buick dealer imprints and graphic from the 1920's. John Last edited by Jolly-John; Sun Sep 25 2016 08:53 AM.
