I was just thinking not long ago how it would be kind of cool if Post did another promotion on the back of cereal boxes like they did in the 60's. Small set limited to 6-7 players from each team. Maybe make them regional in the distribution so for example California doesn't get NY players and vice versa. Would make collecting and trading them fun and challenging. Of course, not print 20 million of each card.
And I'm not going to lie....walking thru the grocery store I always look on the back of a couple Jell-O boxes just to make sure they haven't decided to start doing them again. My wife thinks I'm crazy.
Items you get "after" the cereal - compliments of 1934 Quaker:
One of the coolest Babe Ruth promotions IMO.
Some more boxes

A doctor at an insane asylum decided to take his patients to a baseball game. For weeks in advance, he coached his patients to respond to his commands.
When the day of the game arrived. Everything went quite well. As the National Anthem started, the doctor yelled, "Up Nuts", and the patients complied by standing up. After the anthem, he yelled, "Down Nuts", and they all sat back down in their seats.
After a home run was hit, the doctor yelled, "Cheer Nuts" They all broke out into applause and cheered. When the umpire made a particularly bad call against the star of the home team, the Doctor yelled, "Booooo Nuts" and they all started booing and cat calling. Comfortable with their response, the doctor decided to go get a beer and a hot dog, leaving his assistant in charge. When he returned, there was a riot in progress.
Finding his assistant, the doctor asked," What in the world happened?" The assistant replied, "Well everything was going just fine until this guy walked by and yelled, "PEANUTS!"
