Check the bottom of the matchbooks. If it says "Strike Rite Matches Ltd. London, Ontario" my dad would have printed those. He did all the GM accounts for Strike Rite back then.

My dad used to bring home sheets of uncut matchbooks. I'd cut them up and put them in the spokes of my bike..I remember many of them were GM cars.
Too bad you didn't have those sheets now.
The things we destroyed when we were kids. I don't know how many Ken Dryden rookie cards I destroyed!

Now the fun starts if you want to make it a working matchbook. Find a same size set of matches, carefully remove the staple to pull out the matches, put them in your book, and carefully put the staple back in. I've got 2 sets for my 70 2+2's.
VERY COOL!!! LOOKS JUST LIKE THE ONE IN MY GARAGE!
