Uncut 1962 Post Cereal Back Panel

1962_post_cereal_football_card_logoOn the topic of uncut sheets, I never realized that there were multiple 1962 Post football cards on each cereal box. Yesterday I came across a full back panel on the Vintage Classics page of TheCowboysGuide.com. It makes sense that each box had several cards on it: with 200 cards in the set, one card per box would have required a kid to eat an awful lot of cereal!

Steve Liskey, the owner of the site, points out that some cards could be less common because they were on unpopular cereal. That makes sense: maybe the short prints, like Jim Johnson’s pre-rookie card, were on the back of Grape Nuts boxes?
