Cancelled/redeemed 1912 Zeenuts & 1912 HRKs

[Vintagecatcher]

I 'm curious if anyone else has any cancelled or redeemed 1912 Zeenuts or 1912 Home Run Kisses?

I'm lucky to now have an example from each set.

Here are scans of each:


Does anyone have a punch different from the "heart shaped" punch?


I would like to see some other examples.


Thanks,


Patrick

After further thought....maybe the punch isn't a heart but actually a punch out of the shape of the Bardell Sepia Logo on the back of these 2 sets.

Any thoughts?

Those are really cool. What were the premiums you could redeem them for?

Love the Zeenuts!! couple redeemed...

Packs,

I haven't seen any literature showing the premiums or prizes yet. I'm sure there must be a coupon or newspaper article that gives the details. Maybe one of the PCL experts can add to the discussion.

You would think there would be some floating around with the amount of Zeenuts that have survived. I'm familiar with the Obak and Fatima premiuims but have never seen a Zeenut or HRK. Unless you redeemed the baseball players for a non-sports/baseball related premium. Intersting that the card backs note how "valuable" the premiums are.

I haven't been able to find anything on the premiums or prizes.

I did find a May 11 1912 ad
