I’ve been obsessed with these 21-Feature matchbooks made in the U.S. circa 1930’s – 1940’s by Lion Match Co.

    I have a book of 21 feature match. It as a bowler halogram type picture on front. Phone number is WE.8310. other side says “Where fine roastbeef is carved and served at your table” Inside says”Good Bowlers Become Cocky All Day” Prime steaks.roast beef. Picture in the middle of the matches of Alferd E. Newman with a match aand tube representing the male penis. and two rows of matches on each side. Any idea where it came from?
    Thanks
