This new acquisition is the size and shape of an advertising blotter, but in this case the back is smooth and shiny cardstock, so I'm thinking it's just a trade card used to promote the business. Or maybe a salesperson's sample? I love the colors, and I always love the "Make It a Rule" advertising pitch. Some day, when I build my collection database, I'll be able to figure out exactly how many of the items in my collection use that phrase. I'm guessing hundreds, if not thousands.
P.S. - there is still a company with a similar name and business type in Manassas, Virginia: https://klinememorials.com/about/history/
