The 1970 Kellogg’s baseball card set consists of 75 cards,
each one 2-1/4” by 3-1/2”. The 1970 series marked the debut issue for the
Kellogg’s product, which was available as single issues in select brands of
cereal or as a complete set via a mail-in offer. These plastic-coated cards
were designed to simulate a “3-D” appearance, and each displayed a vivid color
likeness of a player with a baseball design at the corner that identified his
surname, team affiliation, and position. The design was framed in white. Due to their
plastic-coated surfaces, Kellogg's cards were known for easily splitting,
cracking, and curling, leaving pristine examples difficult to find.
