1965 FUNNY FACE DRINK WATCH CONTEST POSTER - CHINESE CHERRY, INJUN ORANGE SLOTS

Description

Historic, extremely rare 1965 contest poster for “Win Your Own Funny Face Wrist Watch” featured placeholder cutouts for all 7 flavors and characters, but for two of the flavors, Cherry and Orange, the characters were not named.
Pillsbury was in the midst of determining whether they were legally required to stop using the offensively-perceived characters Chinese Cherry and Injun Orange, which would eventually become Choo Choo Cherry and Jolly Olly Orange, respectively.
So they remained noncommittal by including the Cherry and Orange flavors and character shapes as open slots on the contest poster but without naming them.
For example, on the Grape character, these words appear: “Paste Goofy Grape’s Face Here.”
But on the Cherry character, only these words appear: “Paste Cherry’s Face Here” so that Pillsbury didn’t have to commit whether they were going to use Chinese Cherry or switch/transition to Choo Choo Cherry.
Contest winners got a Goofy Grape wrist watch.
Condition is nice except for some crinkling on the bottom two corners, which you can see in the scan. There is a horizontal fold in the middle, which is the normal original fold from 1965.  Poster measures 11" x 14".
Ships USPS First Class.
International rates are whatever the U.S. Postal Service charges to ship to the country of the winner.
Will be WELL-PROTECTED in shipment. You won't find another one of these on ebay!
