Presented is an extraordinarily attractive Wheaties store display showing artwork of a generic batter against a blazing blue background of game imagery, a 20-by-25-inch artifact that is handsomely matted and framed. The poster appears to be without any condition issues. With a blazing yellow banner proclaiming “Let’s Go to the Ballgame,” the ad notes proudly that Wheaties is the Breakfast of Champions, adding useful handling tidbits like “with milk or cream and some kind of fruit.” Sponsorship is also noted in one corner with the notation “If you can't go … Listen to game over KEX, Portland, Oregon.”
