GI Joe 1966 #7536 Army Green Beret
Large Window Box Insert Original

Insert Original.
In 1964, the original GI Joe marketing plan was
simple. Sell them the doll...err...action figure :-) and then
sell them plenty of outfit/accessories to go with it. Seems

early 1960s. Each item is displayed where it could easily be
seen on a store shelf - each one sewn on a card and visible through
cello window or seal. This is one of the sets you could buy
to compliment your GI Joe soldier, sailor, marine, or pilot.
This listing is for an ORIGINAL insert that was contained in the window
box. Sewn to the card are the Special Forces Green Beret's accessories:
