King Features Christmas Promos

8 posts in this topic

I've read that King Features Syndicate used to sometimes send promo items out around Christmas, presumably to editors or others who were clients of the syndicates.  

I've posted this book and slipcase featuring covers by Hal Foster and cool interior "jam" illustrations by the King Features artists in the wraps, which I think is one of those promos:

But this King Features Christmas promo (I think) I just picked up is to new to me.  Anyone got one?:

One of the rarer King Features promo I've only seen come up for sale a few times - the 1939 box of 32 Christmas cards:

There are some cool 1950s cards which are much more common.
