How much information can you squeeze on to a matchbook cover? Continental Air Lines took on the challenge in the 1950s. The cover featured the airline’s logo and aircraft, advertising, "Now Flying Weather Avoidance Radar On Our Super Convair Fleet." On the other side of the cover there was a Phillips 66 advertisement.
