It's in a frame, not slabbed, and the "flip" is the inside of the cereal box, which is plain cardboard. This was the outside back of the box. I've had it so long I don't remember where I got it.

I have several packages of the cards that the company sent me from all the years I never opened them they are still in their mailing containers. After seeing these posts I am thinking about unpacking them to see if they are ok or cracked. They are up in the attic somewhere.

Great thread
Here's my 1978 Kellogg's box

I'm enjoying this thread, as I'm another one that collected the Kellogg's cards when they were issued. I never saw the Danish Go Rounds cards when I was a kid, I would have made my mom buy them if I did, but I did pick up a cheap set a few years later. I ate so much of the cereal in the 1970s that I will never eat another box of Frosted Flakes again. I offered all my friends a nickel a card and one friend would bring me a lot, often 3 or 4 at a time. Finally I asked him how he was getting so many. He told me he had a bunch of brothers and sisters.

At a National Convention one year, a guy was selling original artwork for the Kellogg's cards, and I bought a few. I probably should have bought more as they are pretty cool. Here's one for Randy Jones.
