Leftovers Day 7 -- Queen Mary

Kellogg's offered this cardboard Queen Mary (some assembly required, okay, a lot of assembly required) as a premium from Cornflakes cereal in the 1930's.  It doesn't appear to be made from the packaging itself, so it was probably a mail-away premium.


Other ships you could order were The Empress of Britain, The Normandie and The Bremen. Not long after the issue of these premiums, the countries behind them would be at war.
