What Year is This Kellogg's Factory Set?

This was given to me recently and I haven't  compared it to my other factory sets.  This is just a quiz for you.  You need not submit an answer.  I will check it out when I get time next week.

    Is there a secret way to tell the year on those factory sets? If so... I'd love to know.

    I don't think so exactly, but there are many different sizes of these factory sets. I think the codes on the mailer can be matched up too. I'm too busy this week to dig through stuff.

    My guess is 1981 Kellogg's - The Phillies first world championship commemorative Kellogg's set! :)

    It looks like this one on Ebay:

    I didn't compare it to any others yet, but I think that it is not 1981, which is a bigger box because the cards are larger. I have factory sets from at least 1978 - 1983 so once I get time next week I will get to those sets and compare the sizes and mailing codes.

    For some reason the link I posted now shows an opened set. Here's another 1981. Trying to size the box based on the stamp indicating how to open the box:
