Hi All,
Here's my favorite Cracker Jack photo. I believe there are ten boxes of Chums showing. This is a very weird photo, and I have no idea of what's going on here, or who or what this is... Any ideas?
I will post a few details of this as well.

Charming picture, Stewart. I think it is a family photo. All the children resemble each other somewhat. The mom, who is in the back row, seems annoyed with the young man sitting to her right. He isn't holding a box of Chums. Maybe that is why she is giving him the evil eye. And the boy in the front row has his fingers inserted in what looks to be a toilet paper cardboard roll. What is that all about?

Great Photo.

Hi Diane,
I see how it looks like a small roll, but actually it's a side panel of a Chums box.
I counted it as one of the 10 I found.

Hi, Stewart

Great to see you join us here on the CJCA forum!

Anyway, I really like this photo of all the Chums holding Chums!

One of those girls wearing sailor suits must have eated all her Chums and wants more, look at that frown!

This photo looks like a club or school class picture to me.

I wonder what prizes they received in their Chums boxes!

Oh thank you for the closeup showing that the toilet tissue roll is actually a sideview of a Chums box. I am so embarrassed to have made such a silly error. I feel about as smart as one of the Stooges. Well, I'm glad that little boy received a box of Chums along with his friends and not just a toilet paper role.

Hi, Ron

What do you mean no prizes, those three girls shown in the front of the picture are showing off their doll prizes, I think!

The close-up thead of the Chums boxes shows that these boxes were all "Prize Package" ones.
