FUN FACTS, HISTORY, ATTRIBUTES (ie size, year of production, color,scarcity, etc) WHAT FOLLOWS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING SPECIFIC in this listing.
In the early 1950's, TV was in it's infancy - and TV advertising was off
to a flying start! Royal Pudding would merchandise the rights to the Howdy
Doody brand. There are a seemingly endless variations to the sets one
could collect. The main set is a set of 16 "Trading Cards" that would be
cut off the back of the "Royal" dessert boxes. Flavors include Vanilla,
Chocolate, Lemon Pie Filling, Vanilla Tapioca, Chocolate Tapioca,
Orange-Coconut pudding, Orange, Custard, Lemon, Lime and Pineapple. In
addition to collecting the cards and the flavors - there is also a
variation in the 'coloring' and text of the cards - where the main color
of black is substituted with blue (there's even variations in the shade of
blue!). The set of 16 was made up of:
