One boxed coloring set entitled Banner Crayon Outfit, manufactured by Milton Bradley Co., Springfield, Massachusetts, ca. 1915. This set is comprised of seven blind embossed coloring cards, six colored crayons attached to a single sheet of cardstock via elastic, and a chromolithograph-illustrated paperboard box. Directions for use are printed on the underside of the lid: "The crayons are to rub on the parts of the cards requiring color." The embossed coloring cards are untitled and unnumbered, and contain images and scenes of children and animals. All of the cards have been colored, and the crayons have been used as well. "Irene from Albert" is written in ms., in pencil, on the bottom of the box. A price tag of"$12.00" is affixed to the bottom of the box.
