1970 Kellogg's
Contents
Description
1970 Kellogg's is a 75-card set and was the cereal maker's first venture into baseball cards. The design incorporates a brilliant color photo of the player set against an indistinct background, which is then covered with a layer of lenticular plastic to simulate a 3-D look. (The same process would be used by Sportflics in the 1980s).
The cards were individually inserted one per specially marked boxes of Kellogg's cereal. Cards still found with the wrapper intact are valued 50 percent greater than the values listed below. Kellogg's also distributed six-card rack-style packs which contained two iron-on team logo patches.
Cards #16-#30 are believed to be in shorter supply than the other cards in the set.
Distribution
One card per specially-marked box of Kellogg's cereal.
Rack: Six cards plus two satin team logo patches per pack (MSRP: $0.49)
