This was probably an early effort of businessman Gene Coffman, of Gratco Coporation, to develop body paint under the name of Disguise Stix©. Sid Boyum was the artist who collaborated with Gene to promote the product. Gratco Corporation later evolved into Graftobian, a professional make-up company based in Madison, Wisconsin.
