Promises, promises

As promised, I've done more research on the Button Gwinnett autograph issue. Turns out that his autograph is indeed extremely valuable (somewhere between $100k-$250k based on references I've found) and mostly it's because there are only 36 known autographs of his and because he signed the Declaration of Independence. Here's a link to a copy of his autograph:

However, his autograph is no where near as valuable as Julius Caesar's ($2million)

or Shakespeare (probably in the same ballpark since only 6 copies exist).

Compare those to this link which has the cost of autographs from living people:

Ok, now on to a selfish item. My mother, you can see her on yesterday's blog, dug out a pack of these sheets that are half the size of an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper. I have no idea what they are for, but they are from the Revell company back when they were in Valencia, CA. Revell makes model cars, planes, etc. now, though I'm not sure what they used to make. Here's a scan of one of these sheets:

Anyone recognize what it's for? My first thought was a Lite-Bright sheet for the older models, but it's too small. Both sheets combined are the size of half a sheet of notebook paper. Even if you don't know what it's for, let me hear your guesses!

Searching for the answer led me to this link:
