Re: knives on display cards
I have a few display cards obtained over the years.
Here is a "Little Buckaroo" set with leather sheaths. Fixed blades marked USA, by Imperial. Pat. #2,284.833 c1942 Card dated 1960.
Here we have a Worlds Fair 1982 Knoxville Tennessee. (Easy to date this set) Intact set of 12 single blade folders by Providence Cutlery Co. Some would call this set a triple collectible, Pocket Knives, Horse Racing and World's Fair.
Here is a set of 12, 2 blade Ideal U.S.A (Providence R.I. USA) 1924-1986
Let's not forget about "Bronco Billy" He goes back to the "Silent Movie Days"
Queen Elizabeth II 1952.
And of course: Disneyland's Tinkerbell. .52 cents in the early 1960s.

Nice companion Ann
I think I would rather serve and fight with Robin Hood than the Queen.

Some interesting Knives on display cards within what I believe to be from 1952 advertisement pages.
