I'm sure a lot of you have been patiently waiting 6 years for an update j/k

Finally was able to track down an original copy of the Twin Oaks Mixture advertising printed on the back of these scraps. Thank you to Ted Brown for helping figure this one out.

Wow Chris! Congratulations on solving your long sought after mystery. Truly appreciate the shout out and was more than happy to help. It was you that provided all the clues.

Were you able to actually obtain the Twin Oaks advertising piece?
