MI Reprint


(519-4,-5) This book of cookie recipes was presented by Northwest K-F Motors of Minneapolis, MN. Other dealers probably used this as a premium for customers as well. I have two versions that differ in the Henry J ad carried on the back cover. Perhaps some had Kaiser ads as well! Measures 6 x 9 inches and has 68 pages counting covers.

(519-6) This 1951 Kaiser Traveler postcard measures 5 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches. This is a super rare one and I got it at a bargain on ebay. The seller described it as being in relatively poor condition and did not show the obverse in the listing. I emailed him and specifically asked about what was on the back and he replied it was a factory card and had a written message on it. Well I entered an extravagant bid but no one else seemed interested and I picked it up for a very modest price. No one else seems to have this one. Compare with my item 495-1 to see how some creative cut-and-paste was done year ago.
