1939 Wheaties Panels
Count me as one who begged his mother to buy the bright and attractive Wheaties boxes in 1939 and later for the Detroit players (Greenberg, Bridges and particularly Gehringer). Rice Krispies and Corn Flakes were less expensive, and my pleas usually went unheeded. I have had to make up these deficiencies as an adult. I may be mistaken, but I believe that the Detroit Tigers radio home broadcasts were partially sponsored by Wheaties who exhorted their listeners to "go to the kitchen right now and fill your bowl with delicious Wheaties flakes." I was nine years old at the time and did just that. Except I had to do it with Kellogg's Corn Flakes.
