I'd like to second the WOW!

I was trying to see all those pictures on my tiny android screen at work and it just doesn't do them justice. They are even more impressive on my larger monitor here at home.

Are the Brown, Hornung, and Taylor photo's the originals for the cards?

An observance:
In your black & white photo of the TV commercial, I notice that it appears that Jon Arnett, Paul Hornung, Sonny Jurgensen and Sam Huff cards are all pictured on that box. Were they all Post Spokespersons? I ask because those 4 are also who is pictured on the 4 Post booklets in this set.

And as usual, the BIG Beckett football book don't say much about these booklets. Were they inserted in the cereal boxes or were they a send in offer or something?
I had all 4 but in a moment of weakness, I ebayed 3 of them and kept Arnett for my RAMS oddball collection.
