ITEM DESCRIPTION:

Charlie McCarthy Mazuma Sealed Pack of 20 Bills Play Money. Here's an original UNOPENED package of play money from the Edgar Bergen merchandising machine, circa 1950's. Just imagine hanging out with your pal Skinny Dugan and playing one of the Whitman Publishing Charlie McCarthy games, and wagering...using official Charlie McCarthy "Mazuma"! What a treat that would be! I've got an original unopened pack of this great play money. Charlie on the front as George Washington, with Bergen, Mortimer and Effie Klinker on the back! The fun continues with phrases on the bills such as "As good as any dough...unless you try to spend it." My favorite is, "If you try to pass this bill, allow yourself plenty of time - at least 20 years!" Lots of GREAT detail on these bills...you really have to look carefully to get all of the jokes! These packages of 20 bills are STILL SEALED in the original cellophane packages with cardboard header, just as you would bought them from the "five and dime" store 70 years ago! One edge of the cello has been torn. Still has the header card. Made by Bronson Specialties Co. It's tough to get a decent photograph of the bills themselves with the cellophane covering them...there's always a glare. Oblong 3.25 x 7.25. These were also given out at Edger Bergen shows 70 years ago. Check out my vintage toy collection and advertising. Please ask any questions that you may have. Thank you, Dave ......No Tax charged.
