Thomas Edwin "Tom" Mix is recognized as America's first western superstar who defined the genre for western stars that followed. Some advertising puzzles, such as this one, relied on the celebrity of the subject: the puzzle doesn't mention the product being hawked. The envelope for this puzzle likely held an ad for Rexall Drugs, as well as the fact that a Tom Mix puzzle waited inside. It was available free with the purchase of toothpaste.
