Re: Camillus Ephemera
This arrived today. A small 1947 (year per the seller) ad for CAMILLUS 72
pocket knives. The year doesn't really matter to me.

Re: Camillus Ephemera
This item arrived this afternoon and joined my CAMILLUS ephemera collection. It's a sealed deck of Western Knives playing cards. It is a full deck of 52 playing cards, it also includes a Joker and a Western Knives card, for a total of 54 cards. These were printed by the Hoyle Company in Saint Paul, Minnesota when Western Knives were being made by CAMILLUS. I didn't want to break the seal and open my deck. The last two pictures are NOT mine, they belong to the seller.

Re: Camillus Ephemera
I found a cool Counter Sales Display last year.
There was an old catalog inside which listed this model display as #85.
I wish I could buy all the knives that are listed on the display at those sticker prices.

If you get a chance could you show us a few pages from the catalog,would like to compare it to our other info and see if anything new or interesting pops up . And it would be a challenge to fill it with appropriate knives,some here could probably fill it from there collection!!
Thanks for sharing your pics and info.

Re: Camillus Ephemera
Per your request.
Cover - Front & Back.
Based on the Factory Picture, I would date this catalog to no later than 1972.
All the cars I can see are definitely late 60's but the distinctive gold AMC gremlin parked all by itself helps the dating.
The Gremlin was not sold until 1970.
