1969.12.04 New Braunfels TX Herald-Zeitung Page 27

I don't know much about Winn's - seems to be a Texas regional chain. In any case, Winn's published this "Headquarters for MATTEL Toys" ad in the New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung on December 4 1969. It features the Major Matt Mason XRG-1 Reentry Glider in one of the first photo ads of the year featuring the same. It also mentions the "Mattel Astro-Space Team" I think as a nod to MAC.
