Antique Papercraft: Orphan Annie Circus

Vintage paper toys always bring a smile. ^^ This Orphan Annie Goofy Circus was a mail-in offer by Ovaltine in the late 1930's. Scans of some of the circus pieces may be viewed at a website devoted to C. Carey Cloud, the designer of the papercraft. Cloud is probably best remembered for his work as a Cracker Jack prize designer. He produced toy designs for the snack company for thirty some years from the 1930's to the 1960's.
