Motown Cardboard Records

[Guest Eridu]

I haven't been able to figure out what the deal is with these... never seen them before. I assume they were fan club goodies, cereal box redemptions or something like that. I have six in total (pictures of three linked below).

Temptations

Supremes

Four Tops

Are these hard to come by/sought after by motown collectors? Anyone know the story behind them?

Do you still have the box? Would love to buy it to go with my collection of the motown cardboard discs. Jordan
