Issued in 1968-69 and featuring the Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs, the Post hockey marbles promotion was complete at 30, with a game board available through a mail-in promotion by sending cash and box tops from specially marked Post Cereal boxes. This lot contains a complete set of marbles, along with a pair of game boards, with each accompanied by its original box. Included for the Canadiens, we have marbles for Beliveau, Cournoyer, Worsley, Lemaire, G Tremblay, Richard, Harris, Harper, JC Tremblay, Rousseau, Backstrom, Savard, Laperriere and Rogie Vachon. The Leafs marbles include Pronovost, Henderson, Keon, Pulford, Horton, Ellis, Oliver, Carleton, Walton, Gamble, Smith, Ullman, Pelyk, Pilote and Johnny Bower. The plastic game boards are each 15” x 24”, with Habs, Leafs and Post Cereal logos.
The majority of the marbles show light handling wear, with a break beneath the surface on the Carelton marble, with the Horton also showing a scratch/cut to the surface. The game boards show just light wear to each, with one having a few small stains, with the backing appearing to have been changed. Both boxes show heavier wear.
