1933 · Battle Creek, Michigan, and Boston, Massachusetts
Battle Creek, Michigan, and Boston, Massachusetts: General Foods and Artbilt Publishers, 1933. Very good to near-fine. Minor toning, minor wear to extremities.. An uncut paper play set poster (30" by 20.75", color-printed, recto only) produced by General Foods that helps young children "Learn, through play, the actual principles of art-- composition, perspective and color-harmony! No artistic ability is required to play Artbilt. But if you are artistic, creative, imaginative-- you'll excel at this grand game!". The set is comprised of a backdrop and dozens of accompanying characters, animals, and props, ready to be cut out and positioned into pretend scenes. Instructions are included in the upper left-hand corner, along with General Foods' address for receiving more sets, which can be secured by enclosing a 3-cent stamp and 3 cut tops from one of five of their cereals.
