Extra! Possible Arodie UFC Identified?? Extra!

Arodie in question is Club Coronet. It is a UFC that we as a collective group have been trying to identify its origion for some time. I have a theory to run by everyone.

-deep breath-

Ok. First off here is the pic of the chip. (one on left)

Tonight I was surfing Ebay and came across this listing. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=616&item=6952909051&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW It is an auction for a Coronet Home Club Plan. In the 50's this was a household catolog for household items. In the auction you can see some of the items listed like a childs blanket, pots and pans, pens, etc. What caught my eye was the front cover of the catolog. Here is the pic:

Looking at the picture of the Catolog, the logo is extremely close the the logo on the Arodie chip. Putting all of the info together, the Household items catolog, the 1950's when the Arodie mold was in use, and the logo's......I think it is a pretty close match. Here are the pics as close together as I can get them. Note the same script on the chip and the catolog.

OK, I'm jumping up and down here!!! What do you think?
