Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 14″ ad for Kellogg’s Corn Flakes. The ad has a picture of a breakfast table with a red check tablecloth. A man with a handlebar mustache and wearing an old baseball uniform with the name Mudville across the chest is tilting an old time box of Kellogg’s Toasted Corn Flakes up and has discovered, to his dismay, that it is empty. The ad text has paraphrased the old Casey at bat poem to discuss the feeling a person is hit with when “the Corn Flakes are fresh out”.
