Could be the first 1955 Mascot Dog Food Cards of Mantle and Berra. Any Info?

I have photos of the only known complete set of (11) from the original owner who remembered buying mascot dog food in the early 1950s - these are really rare items (I have people calling me frequently to see if any are coming up for sale soon). Three of the card backs mention 11 postcard redemptions in the give-away (Mantle, Newcombe, and Hodges) and the rest mention 8 cards in the post card redemption. There are (11) cards in the baseball card set and the list presented here is accurate. I think they likely made 8 cards in the first year, then added the other 3 (Mantle, Newcombe, Hodges) in the second year. If anyone has more information on Mascot dog food, the company, or these cards or redemption program please let me know. It's been fun researching these cards over the past couple of years to try to piece together more information!

I look forward to reading your followup story about the set.

I tried to ship a package UPS yesterday and one store had power out and did not expect power until weekend at earliest. Next store 3 miles away had no internet, and other customers at second store said that cable internet was down in entire town and most of county.

If it's like mine, the battery is already dead.

We got nearly nothing here, a fairly bad thunderstorm and that was about it.

What a letdown. Was hoping to see an actual find of the entire set.

Sounds like you will since chuckw posted that he has photographed one.
