Very early Ruger soft cooler

This is a neat old Ruger soft cooler. I think I got it from Croyden Gal several years ago. I put it up for a penny so wanted to let folks in the Ruger circle here see it and get a chance at it. I actually can not remember how these came to be, so if someone knows please let me know. Seems like they were given to Ruger employees, but not for sure. I also never have known what year they put these out, but assume it was fairly early by the original wreath print on it.

Thanks guys. Contender said he thought 1979 was first year, and Bradshaw said Bill Jr. Gave him one of them in 1980. Always neat to know the details on this old Ruger stuff!
