Up for sale/sale is an incredibly rare, fully complete vintage 1963 papercraft premium kit distributed by The Quaker Oats Company and designed by Post-Way Publishing.

Because these 1960s kits were intended to be cut out, painted, and heavily played with by children, finding an intact, complete set with the original mailing envelope is highly uncommon for toy and advertising collectors.

What is Included in This Set:

• Original "Pow-Wow Pouch" Mailing Envelope: Features a brilliant mid-century graphic of a boy on a totem pole. Includes the authentic vintage "Palefaces" bulk-rate mailing label addressed to Dayton, Ohio. (Opened flap, shows age-related spotting/foxing).

• "How-To" Pattern Template Sheets: Large, crisp black-and-white pull-out pattern sheets with uncut templates for an Indian Vest, Headdress, and Necklace.

• "Let's Give a Potlatch" Activity Poster: A massive, full-color double-sided guide packed with mid-century party ideas, recipes, game rules, and cut-out templates for themed drinking cups, candy holders, centerpiece teepees, and place settings.

• "Indian Legends and Lore" Booklet: An educational folklore mini-booklet accompanied by an informational map sheet and custom texturized paper sample.

• Original Costume Accessories: Includes a handful of the original brightly dyed crafting feathers (red, blue, yellow, green) paired with the original cardboard flat-pack stiffener and tan headband strip.

Condition Notes:

This set is structurally excellent with no cut pieces. Due to its 60+ year age, the paper pieces exhibit natural foxing (brown spotting), mild discoloration, and light handling creases along the fold lines. The back of the mailing envelope shows heavy foxing, and the top seal flap has typical rough edges from being opened.

Please review all high-resolution photos closely, as they serve as the ultimate guide to the item's physical cosmetic state.

Shipping & Handling:

The item will be packaged flat with rigid cardboard reinforcement inside a waterproof sleeve to guarantee it arrives to you safely without any further bending, folding, or moisture exposure.
