Hiya Dale. To answer your good question, no, the 1967 Coca-Cola premiums were not glued to a backing piece of cardboard; rather, they were completely printed on the high quality photographic card stock. Thus, the Coke premiums are like the simulated wood border Bee-Hives from their later years.
According to the Krause Standard Cat, the size of the Coke premiums are 5 1/2" X 7". Interesting---the Krause Standard Cat lists the set as 1967 Dexter Press. They got it wrong. Their description indeed tells us it's a Coca-Cola premium. However, I don't understand why they would put the printing company before the sponsor for which the cards belong. It would be like calling the Morrell issues "Mirror Chrome", or Hunters, Stahl-Meyer, and Briggs "Milprint". All to say, the promotion and title of a set belong to the parent company who sponsored and paid the printing company to produce and print trading cards for their promotion. ---Brian Powell Last edited by brian1961; 08-08-2017 at 12:29 PM. |

When I first seen it, it looked identical to how Beehives were distributed with the actual pic glued to the backing paper. I was just guessing, thinking maybe these were done the same way. I appreciate the info, Brian.

I am slowly picking away at my 52's, and have had some good luck lately picking up some tougher cards. Still need some high dollar ones in the 1 to 310 numbers but hopefully they will come soon? A couple more arrivals today and 3 more wins last night that I am excited about receiving.

Received 12 more '56s in the mail this week, including Fox and Martin. Now down to needing 58 to complete the set (VG/EX). Hoping to pick up a couple more this weekend at a local show.

Thanks Jeff. It's coming along better than expected lately!
I quoted you in my last post but forgot to comment. Your latest P/U's, again, and not surprisingly, are super nice! Congrats!
