Complete set of 1962 Post Cereal, consisting of 200 cards. Includes both variations for #5, 6, 145, and 173. Condition is 43% Ex-Mt to Nr/Mt, 41% Vg-Ex to Ex, and 16% Gd to Vg (including a couple lesser and one altered). The preceding grades, as well as those in the composite below, are without respect to the neatness of the cut.
