What did I buy? Mays and mantle!!!

The card stock would be similar to that of dry goods. It’s slightly thicker than a cereal box. I’m not sure how that compares to boxes from the 60s.

Any interest in selling

Not looking to sell, I also just want to know what it is. Can’t find any info!!!

Does anyone know and brands exclusively from commissary’s? Maybe this was a promo from that. Looking for any clues.

Here are a couple of old news clippings from the Stars & Stripes. The one on the left describes the 1963 contest winner, the clip on the right has the 1962 winner, so apparently Lever Brothers ran the sweepstakes for several years in the early '60's. That company put out a number of different products, but I think the most likely to contain the military offer would be something like All Detergent, or Rinso Detergent, which were packaged in cardboard boxes.
Funny thing - I happened to be on a TDY trip to Japan and was stationed at Tachikawa AB for a couple of weeks in late 1963, so maybe I bumped into the contest winner?

Thanks man! You are the best!!! I did so much searching with every combo and came up empty!

Anyone else seen anything like this before or know where to find out more about lever brothers in 1960s commissary’s. I keep striking out with every search I perform.
