1942 Envelope for the Pool Red Head Automatic Casting Float- Distributed by A.M. Berkley, Wichita, Kansas. I have only seen a few of these floats over the years. I believe WW2 may have played a roll in the lack of success of this company.
Check out my float page to see a boxed example of this unusual float.
