Kornies 1948

Kornies 1948 Football Cards

Collection: 64 cards
Scarcity rating: 6
The first release of Kornies breakfast cereal cards was a popular footy card set. Cigarette cards all but disappeared during World War 2 so it was a welcome return in 1948 with this 64 card set of VFL footballers. Featuring legends of the era including Lou Richards, Dick Reynolds and Jack Dyer, the exact same numbers, players and photos made up the first 64 cards of the following year’s release (which had an additional 44 cards). Kornies is printed down the bottom in black but there are some cards floating around without this. Rumour has it that these were printed for Kornies employees at the time. It’s unknown if all 64 cards have an “employee” version.
