Kelloggs cards?

[darkhorse9]

Your Seaver card is from 1992 when they had figured out a lot of the issues with cracking. Those were made by SportsFlics (which made quite a run of sets in the 90's)

I've got a near complete run of Kelloggs sets 1970-1985. I have had very little cracking issues. I keep my cards in 9-pocket sheets, but I've trimmed top loaders that fir in to each pocket to keep the cards straight. So far it's worked pretty good.

Thanks, Mark.
I had no idea what year it was from but now I'm more confused on where I acquired it?

Speaking of Kellogg's, there are three cards I have never seen proof of, 1972 Dick Drago with Poyals on the back, 1976 Jim Kaat with the White Sox emblem on the back, and 1977 Lyman Bostock with Dock Ellis pictured on the back. I don't doubt the 1972 Drago exists, but I always wondered if it was a printing flaw with the R partially obstructed rather than an error variation with an incorrect P. Does anyone have scans of any of the three?

Loved Kelloggs cards as a kid, with my favorite being the 73's and had a few. Only 3D cards I have now are the 70 & 71 Killebrew and have pondered if I should do the run. The thread here has been fun to follow...so I've kept my eye on them...and came across a great deal on a complete 73 set. With all the cracking issues and all that...still not sure I want to invest the time and dollars but the 73s are obviously safe. Pretty stoked.

Thanks for all the info...I sure bothered my mom a lot as a kid for those. Cereal and Hostess everyday!

This thread worried me as I'm 74% through a full 1970 - 1983 Kelloggs run.

I've gone to check my cards....except for a few, they're all still OK. I'm not sure if the few that I've spotted have cracked since I bought them or if I just didn't notice them before...but I'll be keeping an eye on it. I keep them in penny sleeves in toploaders.

I love this set. It brings me back to my childhood reading the boxes while eating my breakfast and thinking about those cards.

'81 Kellogg's sheet. I stopped collecting Kellogg's sheets when I realized they were very difficult to keep from cracking once rolled up.

Just picked up this 3 card panel from 1970 along with the square cut 1970 Super
