[mjm579]

I found two of these sets today along with a set from Ore-Ida and three separate singles.
Any ideas if this is - Kay guitars? Kay signs? Other??

I don't think so. This is their logo



I would search for an "Okay" logo.

I am thinking it could be an old logo for Circle K. Company logo's, even names change. Esso to Exxon, to ExxonMobile, etc. And Pegasus changed from looking left to right or vice versa. And the running deer on the John Deere Company signs went from having 4 to 3 and then back to 4 legs, just as examples. I am also wondering how long would you have to work at a "quickie mart" sort of place to get a nice pen and pencil set as an award? 20 years, at minimum wage, no less? LOL

My thought was Circle K as well. I'll have to dig a little deeper.

Thx.
