(LOT 1608)
1951 Wheaties Complete Set of Single Serve Boxes

The General Mills Wheaties cereal brand relationship with professional sports continues nearly 100 years after the formula was perfected. In 1934, a marriage was consummated once Wheaties featured New York Yankees Lou Gehrig on the front of the box. The practice of depicting the athlete of the "day" continues today. Presented is a complete set of PSA-graded Single Serve boxes as follows: PSA 8: Lujack & Musial; PSA 6: Snead & Williams; PSA 5: Mikan; and PSA 4: Feller. The visually striking colors of this assemblage are undeniable and there appears only the slightest amount of color wear at the bottom of a few along the orange "Breakfast of Champions" tagline. The backs remain clean with no apparent aging. - Page size based on images write up should be smaller
