Need Help Identifying this Piece of a prize
Hello im currently a student undergoing an archaeology project through salisbury university in cambrige Maryland and while we were doing excavations we came across a cracker jack prize. Me and another fellow student spent some considerable time searching for information about this piece but both came up with nothing. I was wondering if anyone could give us any information about the piece ill attach a few photos. It seems to be plastic.

Hello!
Congrats on your find. It appears you have unearthed a pinwheel tilter, issued by Crackerjack in 1955 per Larry White's Book on CD. There are 19 of these in that particular series, each with a different "moving" picture. Maybe you'll get lucky and find more. Happy hunting.

Re: Need Help Identifying this Piece of a prize
I believe there are only 18. The four leaf clover says, "Good Luck" in the middle. It looks like it is listed twice.

Hello, Everyone
Looks like you found the duplicated C. J. Prize Cyndy. I agree with you that the set has only eighteen (18) prizes in it, great work!
