Vintage Popsicle Matchbook - circa 1930s

The popsicle was invented in Oakland, California by a gentleman named Frank Epperson. Epperson patented the concept of an ice pop (originally called an Ep-sicle) in 1923. He ultimately sold the rights to his "invention" and the Popsicle brand to the Joe Lowe Co. in New York.
