Description: "CALUMET BAKING POWDER" STORE PROMOTIONAL TABLET - circa 1920's Calumet Baking Powder Co. 8" x 10". Highly graphic cover art featuring the early "Calumet Kid" (a bow-tie-wearing baby who just loved baking muffins) and "Indian Chief" packaging. Cover also notates "Station W.Q.J. - Best by Test". NOTE: In 1923, Chicago station WMAQ shared time every night with WQJ, owned jointly by the Calumet Baking Powder Company and the Rainbo Gardens. It was not until several years later that WQJ was gradually monopolized by WMAQ and finally bought by the Daily News, leaving a clear channel for WMAQ. Cover advertising is for STWEART & CO. DEPARTMENT STORE in Baltimore, Maryland. The two inner advertising pages each include a Calumet mail premium advertising pitch - one for a cook book, one for a domestic science book. Rest of tablet is lined for school use and unused. An uncommon early CALUMET BAKING POWDER item with outstanding eye appeal. Condition is considered GOOD to FAIR with moderate surface/stain/edge wear. Moderate surface creasing with several very small edge tears (largest tear being approx. 1/8"). The wonderful cover graphics are still bold, bright, and attractive. Overall, we feel this is still a very displayable example by most standards (see photos). It would make a scarce early CALUMET BAKING POWDER display for the discriminating ADVERTISING enthusiast. On a condition code scale of 1 to 10, the above listed item(s) rated - (7). U.S.A.
