SHREDDED WHEAT ADVERTISING POST CARDS: SETS I & II, SERIES 22

SHREDDED WHEAT ADVERTISING POSTCARDS:  SETS I & II, SERIES 22

 

Sets I and II both have a “Greetings from Niagara Falls” message in the upper left corner, and both of these cards have a PMC back.  But a close examination will yield that the line at the bottom of the card has changed on IIA from “Mailed from The Natural Food Conservatory.  The largest and finest Industrial Building in the world” to “Mailed from The Natural Food Conservatory. The finest and most hygienic Industrial Building in the world.”  Also the Set I card has no Series number upper right, while IIA does.

On both these cards, the inscription under the factory view is “The Natural Food Conservatory/ The Home of Shredded Wheat.”

For cards with “All in the Shreds” in the top line, see Sets III, IV, and V.

IA  – no series number upper right   Private Mailing Card back used for both cards
 
     
IIA – Series 22 upper right, and a change in the line at bottom   Upper right corner of IIA – showing series number.
