I came upon this nostalgic bookmark for sale on eBay just now and really like it but not enough to pay $32 for it! (Price + postage from the US) The seller had this to say... This is one of the coolest things I have found in a book! This was inside a very old children's book. It has been well-protected for years and the color is bright. This is a bookmark that was compliments of Kellogg's Rice Krispies. Made for a child, it shows a balanced breakfast and asks if yours measures up, with a 6 inch ruler printed on the side. On the other side is a pledge in poem form on proper book care. It is heavy stiff paper, but not cardboard. Kind of like a greeting card. Young Billy Wright from Buckskin School wrote his name and school in his best cursive along with a gold star. This measures about 6.5 x 2 inches and looks great. I have no idea how old it is but the book was from the 1950's. |
