Rocky, I think that catalog(really more like a flyer) debuted in 1948. Yours was shipped in 1953, and in 1954 they finally made another catalog. Collectors call the '54 the "20 cent" catalog. Way too cool with the original envelope!
Here is a bit more of my memorabilia. I will ask Greg about them, (if I remember) the next time we talk. His memory is much better than mine. It would appear this project started about 2006.
I just noticed the belt buckle I have on a belt does not have the “metal” edging that the other buckle has.
