It’s fair to say that 1982 Kellogg’s Baseball tweaks things from the previous year’s set. For most collectors, it’s the lenticular 3-D look that probably matters most. That didn’t go anywhere.
Like 1981, cards weren’t actually in cereal boxes themselves. Instead, the only way to get them was through a box top mail-in offer. Four cereals were eligible for the promotion. This opened things up a little more as Corn Flakes was the only eligible cereal in 1981.
The 1982 Kellogg’s Baseball checklist has 64 cards. While that’s generous for a lot of food-issue sets, it’s actually down a couple of cards from 1981’s 66. Nolan Ryan and George Brett are the headliners. Other top cards include Rickey Henderson, Eddie Murray, Ozzie Smith, Mike Schmidt and Reggie Jackson.
The 3-D look might be a fun gimmick, but these cards are also packed with info. You might need to put on your glasses as the backs include a generous amount of stats. Once that box is filled in, virtually every bit of back real estate is filled with biographical info.
It’s not just the checklist that shrunk slightly. The cards themselves are also physically smaller. After switching to a standard 3.5″ by 2.5″ format for the previous set, they’re a little smaller this time around at 2 1/8″ by 3 1/4″. This is still bigger than a lot of other Kellogg’s sets, though.
1982 Kellogg’s Baseball remains a very affordable set, even after all these years. Both singles and sets are attainable, even with small budgets. Even sealed sets can be found for price comparable to the average blaster.
