A narrower precursor to Filmotype Parade. Issued before 1955 [Filmotype 1955]. See also Filmotype Monroe.
Happy is largely identical to Orlando. Canada Type claim it’s based on Ap-Ap by Tony Stan (see his Yo-Yo). It’s thinkable that Stan was also the designer of Orlando and licensed the design to different manufacturers.
