Blueberry Muffin Mix Scans - 1981 Strawberry Shortcake

You all know that I collect Strawberry Shortcake and have been obsessed with her since 1979.

When I started collecting again in the 90s and started to join collector communities, I found photos of

this elusive item and remember going to the store and begging my mom to buy it.  She refused

because she knew I didn't like blueberries and probably wouldn't eat them!

I've been looking for YEARS, but of course, people usually didn't keep this box.

A few years ago I got an amazing lot of SSC items from a sweet collector named Emily. Turns out we grew up a couple of blocks apart.  We would have been besties if we knew each other!

This box was in the lot, along with several other items I've been looking for for the last 30 years or so!

(I made a video of that haul! It's below the photos.)

 

Nestle Quik Ads 1980's

Nestle Quik, now known as NesQuik, did a lot of advertising in children's comics in the 80's.  They cross promoted with cartoons, sports heroes and all kinds of fun stuff to get kids to drink their delicious mixture of choco-powder and milk.  I preferred Ovaltine, but I was surely in the minority.  Sorry to cut this short, but I have a sudden and dire craving for some chocolate milk.

Is Count Chocula coming back soon?

This is an ad and iron on transfer from a 1979 Magazine.  Woman's Day I think.  I sold it on Ebay a while back, but I wish I would have kept it and ironed on this great image!  I want to be pals with Frankenberry too!
