Catalog status: Unconfirmed
I exchanged emails a couple of months ago, and again more recently, with the folks at Legendary about these items. They offered to send examples for my inspection, which I declined since the deadline for the 2012 book had passed.
When first presented with these "cards," I knew the images looked familiar, but couldn't place them. Last week I was contacted by a reader who brought up the SI Posters connection. I shared that information with Legendary.
My current position on including the set in the Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards is that the set will not be listed without some sort of contemporary confirmation of a connection with the purported Champion Corn Flakes, i.e., surviving packaging, 1968-era advertising.
