Default 68 spare key envelope

I posted this in Factory Resto section also, but am hoping maybe someone here can help me.
Can anyone please send me a nice clear picture of the envelope that was used to hold the spare keys when a 68 was delivered from the factory?
I am told this is a small paper envelope that was in the owner's packet at time of delivery. I don't have one and have never seen an actual sample which is why I would like to have a picture, preferably a close-up, along with the actual dimensions.
Also, is this somehting that would be available in a stationary store or does it have any GM logos on it.
Thank you in advance,
Kurt

This is from my 71 but I believe it would be the same for a 68.

Thanks Roger.
I appreciate the link to the auction and will try to score this for my owner's packet in my 68.

Check your AIM. If memory serves there's an actual part number for the envelope. Compare the part number with the one in the ebay listing.

Original envelopes are extremely hard to find since they had a tendency to get thrown away. Ditto for original seat back spacers and bag, trim ring cards, radio/stereo instructions, etc.

Good luck with the hunt.
