The picture shows a view of this Unused 1960s Flower Children Leaf 1 cent Bubble Gum Machine Advertising Card. The very colorful psychedelic images on this card bear much likeness to the transcendental meditation guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and the Beatles Sergeant Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. One can only wonder how many people thought that they might receive gumballs laced with LSD from the machine. It is a very interesting advertising card. Anyway, the card and gum was manufactured by Leaf Brands, a Division of W. R. Grace & Company of Chicago, Illinois and in Canada made and sold by Leaf Confections, Ltd., of Toronto, Canada. The ingredients are listed at the bottom. The unused header or advertising card measures 5-1/4'' x 6-1/4''. It appears to be in mint condition as pictured. |
