Here is a video from Cerealmad, on the toys that came in packets of breakfast cereal. In this case, the Prehistoric Animals, by Nabisco Shreddies, from 1958.
This was a set of 20 semi-flat figures – mostly dinosaurs, and a few Ice Age mammals. There are close-ups of all the figures.
Paul Adams from New Zealand
Whoa! I wonder if any lucky child collected all 20? That would be worth a king's ransom today! SFZ
ReplyDeleteYep, I bet SF!
DeleteMy wife has a couple, scavenged from collector fairs in the 80's...
ReplyDeleteGood word that Looey, scavenged. It's what we do at boot sales!
