About flipped when I saw the date on it! Pretty neat!

Wow, I grew up in Flint Chuck, back at the end of the haydays of GM going strong! It is a sad city now.

But I just checked and in 1941 good sirloin steak was 22cents a pound! So maybe it wasn't so good.

That's a very cool piece of history.

Again they're in pretty bad shape, but they must have come with this purchase back in '41. The guy passed this year at 103, so he picked up this lot when he was in his thirties.
