Consuming an endless amount of both cereal and soda pop to acquire the large collection of offered cans and empty boxes, this lot contains a large group of approx 46 vintage 1990s (some possibly earlier or later) cereal boxes including 33 that remain fully assembled, accompanied by approx 209 empty Pepsi cans (a few are not Pepsi) that feature both sports along with Star Wars Episode I. The 33 fully assembled cereal boxes (just the boxes, with no interior contents or packaging, with two that are Bugles boxes and not cereal) include Wheaties, Frosted Flakes, Corn Flakes, Shreddies, Honeycomb, Flutie Flakes (Doug Flutie) and others, with boxes featuring Wayne Gretzky (11), Mario Lemieux, Eric Lindros, Brett Hull, Brendan Shanahan and Martin Brodeur, with a few boxes that feature other sports athletes including Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods, with four boxes featuring the World Series-champion Toronto Blue Jays. The 13 folded disassembled boxes include some duplication to the assembled boxes, with highlights to include the Vancouver Grizzlies and Felix Potvin. The majority of the boxes show just light handling wear and feature strong and bright graphics. Highlighted by a trio of 1974-75 Stanley Cup champion Philadelphia Flyers Canada Dry Cans (Barber, Leach and Kelly), the soft drink cans total 209 and feature approx 51 for hockey (most picture Wayne Gretzky, with heavy duplication, along with a handful of Team Canada cans), 16 football (Super Bowl XL and XLI), 2 baseball including a 1970s RC can with Rollie Fingers, and 139 that feature Star Wars Episode I (heavy duplication). The majority of the cans show expected handling wear, with only a small number dented or pushed-in.
