Here is a BlackBorder Kelloggs Pep Trading Card issued in Canada during 1955. The cards where printed on the backs boxes ofKelloggs Pep Cereal and were to be cut out by the child with the supervision ofan adult. There are 64 cards in total in the series, which is divided up into 4subsets. A-Indians, B-Canadian Army, C-Sports, D-Aircraft. The titles on the fronts of the cards are printedin both English and French, and feature black borders. The backs are blank as issued. Burdick lists this series as FC70-2 in hisAmerican Card Catalogue. The Card measures 3 3/8 inches by 2 1/16 inches approximately(keeping in mind these are hand cut from boxes) This card is number B14 THE HIGHLANDERS REGIMENT. Thiscard has been cut out fairly well with lots of black border visible. There is a free from creases with very littleborder chipping (rare with dark border sets0 and relatively nice corners. I have scannedthe front of the card fairly large so you can determine the condition for yourself..These are a scarce issue . Most kids would have cut these out and usedthem as toys (usually thrown out after awhile). I imagine not many survived. Dueto the lower population in Canada than in the US or the UK, print runs in Canada were much smaller compared with American or British Cards. Because of thisthe majority of all Canadian non sports cards are far scarcer than card issued in the USA and UK.
