Tootsie pop fans-- is there any truth to the Indian and star myth?

When I was growing up in the 70's, kids kept their Tootsie Pop wrappers if they had the full picture of the Indian shooting the star on them. Supposedly, one could send in these wrappers for free Tootsie Pops. I am sure that my parents threw them out decades ago(!) but am still wondering about the story. Was there any truth to it, or was it an urban myth?

    Yeah, no, I totally had one. I sent it in and they sent me a big box of toys. It had a tent, a paddle ball, a toy flashlight and a box with a picture of a fire on it. I guess they like camping toys.
