    Description

    This is a beautiful and very hard-to-find advertising matchbook that reads "
    GE Focused Tone, General Electric Radio revolutionizes tuning .. automatically assures perfect tone.
    " This dates to somewhere in the 1930s. The matchbook is quite large and measures 3-3/8" x 4.25". The matches are complete and have a GE drummer printed on the front. There are no rips or tears. The back has a little bit of a light white residue of some sort (see last photo). With a very light pressure, your fingernail can easily scrape it off so I think it will mostly clean off.
