Ah, a vintage malted milk balls candy box. It seems to me that there used to be far more manufacturers of this treat in the past. Now, Whoppers just about have this market cornered - though I did find some delicious Necco-branded malted milk balls recently. They were great! Can't recall the name. These "Malties" are a small box, so these must have been much smaller than a standard Whopper-size.

The first Valomilk candy cup was created in Kansas by the Sifers company in 1931 and are as delicious and gooey as they were 80 plus years ago.
Candy cigarettes have to be one of the worst ideas of all time.
These old-school candies will satisfy your sweet tooth while the kids snack away on their trick-or-treat bounty.
Though this wrapper is torn in two pieces, it's probably my favorite of the three I have for this one. I think it's that Darth Vadar makes the front of the wrapper. Featured today at CollectingCandy.com: www.collectingcandy.com/wordpress/?p=2732
