I was outbid by eBay Member nashomatic for these matchbook covers. Around $1.50 US apiece.  A variety of locations and eras represented in this batch, I should have been more serious.

Wow! I've never seen another AMC/Rambler matchbook. I have one that just has my car on it with the slogan of the day, "Insist on more, go Rambler in 64"!

There are actually a lot of different AMC logo matchbooks out there. There's one that stands out from a dealership in Cleveland (or was it Toledo) that has a 68 or 69 Javelin on it. I've had them in the past but since I don't collect that kind of stuff, I've sold them...

Andy, how about a picture of your matchbook?  I am curious.  I think AMX posted a matchbook cover from the Cleveland dealership you're talking about, with the '68 Javelin all over it.
