My Favorite Kellogg's Sets - Why I Love the 1979 Set

I spent way too much time on the 1979 set.  Looking at the fine print to find errors and copyright differences is a slow process.

There are really two different sets.  The first is the set on thin card stock with the white border.  The second version has a thick card stock and the border color is some kind of cream color.

I haven't gotten any new variations lately.  I still need to confirm how many available possibilities exist.

I have no problem with the smaller card size.  Unfortunately, lots of the thicker stock cards tend to curl.

Nolan Ryan was 10-13 in 1978 so he didn't get into the 1979 set.   There is a good group of stars with Brett, Jackson and Rose.  Someday I will need to see which set did the best job depicting the best stars possible.

I used to see lots of these cards on ebay in the past.  Now I see lots of sets, but not any large lots.  This seems to be the first set that is readily available as a factory set.  Will that hurt its long-term value?  The value doesn't impact how I rate the sets.
