SHREDDED WHEAT ADVERTISING POST CARDS: SET XI – SERIES 330 – THE FOOD VALUE OF SHREDDED WHEAT

SHREDDED WHEAT ADVERTISING POST CARDS: SET XI – SERIES 330 – THE FOOD VALUE OF SHREDDED WHEAT

Set XI [Series 330] is a card devoted wholly to the benefits of eating Shredded Wheat. If you really wanted to send a card about bowel exercise, this is it. It is, like the recipe cards, not easily located. The former are likely popular items with recipe collectors; this card, however, may just never have been used enough to be still around in any quantity.

It is interesting to note however that the artwork used on this card – of the Falls and of a bowl of Shredded Wheat – occur again on the Series 412 card a few years later.

In addition to the Series number lower left, at lower right is the inscription, “Niagara Litho Co. Buffalo 9827.” This is the first use of a new divided back picturing “The Home of Shredded Wheat” at the top.
