Arthur Cook's DIXIES Ice Cream

If you like old movies and ice cream then this is the post for you! Ice cream cup lids featuring your favorite stars of 40's films was certainly a great way to sell some frozen treats and promote current films back in the day --especially when it's four of the most glamorous gals to ever grace the silver screen! I'm not exactly sure how many different movie star lids there were in all to collect, but there seems to have been a LOT-- I do know that Arthur Cook's "All Cream" Ice Cream was made down in Hot Springs, Arkansas! You could even save up 12 lids and mail 'em in for enlarged star photos.

These are cool. Probably aimed at servicemen? I vaguely remember other kinds of things in ice cream lids--maybe contests? Or pogs?

I guess Paulette Goddard didn't have a movie out that year!

A quick look on Google reveals that the movies mentioned were released in 1946.

1946, it was a different time and a different world back then.
