Here are a few scans of 1963 wrappers. Don't think that specific one though:

Thanks Dave! It's certainly a work in progress. As you can see we're missing a bunch of images and need some links. If you have suggestions, we're all ears!

I start to wonder if this even exists. Maybe it was a bazooka comic prize. Robert Foster's (I keep referring to it as Paul Wright's in previous posts and threads, but I am wrong) old BCN checklist does not list the Mantle Mask as a possible side panel. I am probably guilty of propogating the myth but one should have surfaced by now.

hi
according to a well known dealer about 15 years ago he bought a stack of wrappers that included multiple wrappers showing the mantle mask
not having much value at the time he sold them with others as 63 wrappers
his memory seems quite clear on this
This story was started some how and lemke must have had some proof before he published it
so i am now offering a reward just to see a scan of this wrapper

I see no evidence of this in the published wrapper checklists.
