    Does anyone have a copy of the original card or ad to which a Gela token was affixed that Reader's Digest used to promote one of their Greek History books (or possibly their Condensed Books)? Gela-token.jpg

    I know that back in 2009 Doug Smith included something about them on a page of fakes he had online. And I remember having one from the original mailing. The token was mounted on a card with a kind of rubber cement that came off rather easily, and was to be sent back to indicate acceptance of the offer to sell you a book. They had dozens of gimmicks like that. I would like to get a pic of the card.

    Anyone?
