  12. FLORES.  Okay, this does NOT say Flores on it - but read further.  Obtained with group of 1920's and 30's toys, including a marked FLORES.  Feels, looks and weighs just like a FLORES.  It is yellow, with a trademark that is unreadable in the center of one side.  The main word across the center ends in "...IND", and along the bottom of logo it appears to read ARKANSAS.  My feeling is that it IS a Flores, possibly made as an advertising promo for another company????  I am sure someone out there knows more about this than I do - and might recognize the partial wording.   Outside of the poor printing on this, it is excellent.   225.00
