Nice David. The Hostess cards sure do bring back great childhood memories of collecting for me.

Jumping into 1977, Mike Schecter and Associates made round cards (discs) in 1977 and 78 mainly, most with advertising on the back for many types of businesses. Most are fairly easy to find thanks to Ebay, some are tougher. I'll go through all the discs alphabetically, with anecdotal evidence on which ones I thought were the hardest to find.

Here is the Big T - Tastee Freeze disc from 1978.

Enjoy a little song about a Tastee Freeze while looking at this thread

After clearing 11 inches of snow off the loading dock, here is another disc. The blank back discs are one of the easiest to find, perhaps they are unstamped Carousel discs.

And a "10".

Buckmans Ice Cream Village disc. Another one that is not to difficult to find.

Burger Chef - Pretty easy to find, including in whole sheets which will be tomorrow. I think Burger Chef was bought out by Hardee's in the Mid West anyway in the late 70's early 80's.
