I bought a pack of that gum at Woolworths maybe a year after it was issued, maybe two. Mine was orange, and simply awful. I'm not sure if they had other flavors. If the wrappers were something other than orange then they did.

Would be happy to send you some if you promise to have someone take an I Pone video of you popping it in and starting to chew and then posting it here

Maybe we can scrounge you up a 1963 Fleer cookie as well
