I don't think full boxes with one of each card is what they're talking about.

Thanks, I realize that the definition of a master set is a little foggy, and that there are serious collectors (like Dan Mabey) who are pursuing true master sets. That is why I asked him for his definition.

My definition of a true master set would be the same as Dan's, a copy of each card from each of the available products. I originally just collected the image cropping variations, as well as the other variations, before realizing I was realistically close to being able to complete the "master" sets for 61-62 Post sets. The 63 Post/Jell-O sets and the 62 Post Candian I am working to complete just the 1-200 basic set.

A master set consists of a card for each player from each box that they were on, for example: Gene Woodling is on 4 boxes in the 1962 set.

Grape Nut Flakes 12oz
Top 3 10oz
Oat Flakes 15oz
SC 9oz

The Top 3 and Oat Flakes cards are very similar and the scan may not show it but his face is a slightly darker reddish tint as well as his hands.
