The first of these three tee matchbooks was made for Van Cleefe Bros of Chicago, Ill, and advertised their "Dutch Brand Rubber Products." Produced by Eastern Adcraft of Manhasset, NY, this matchbook has all of its original translucent tees and they are marked "Van Cleeve Dutch Brand" on their heads. I am not sure where the Wilbur Jackson name fits into all of this, but it must do so prominently given its prominence on the package.

The second package advertises Solvay Alkalies and Chemicals. And they had chemical given the long list on the back of this package! The package contains all 4 of its original transluscent tees. They are marked "Solvay Sales" on their tops.

The third package promotes Smith & Walton's Hadrlan Paints & Synflat. It contains all three of its original plastic tees.
