Item Description
These famous cereal give-away buttons were the inspiration of the master creator of premiums for kids, designer Sam Gold. These 13/16" litho buttons went into post-war cereal boxes issued as five subsets of 18 (each subset including Superman) over a two year period, 1945-1946, so that in the end 86 different buttons comprised a set. Characters include the aforementioned Superman as well as Blondie and Dagwood, Dick Tracy, Felix the Cat, Flash Gordon, Popeye, Little Orphan Annie, The Phantom and many more. Tiny scattered traces of wear mostly only seen upon close inspection. Set remains totally bright and glossy w/strong color. Overall Exc. to NM. An exceptional high grade set of one of the all-time classic cereal premiums. John Grossman Collection.
