1999-00 Kraft / Post Collection Hockey Forum

In replying to the post cereal site thread, it led me to search for my Post Gretzky cards.  I finally found them here listed as Inserts to the Kraft issue of that year (last 2 Inserts on the list). I believe thisis wrongly listed.  I acquired all of the cards through 7 different Post cereal boxes that also bore the card pictures on the boxes themselves making it almost like a "Jumbo" set.  I don't recall the Post Gretzky cards being available any other way.

Hockey collectors?

Yeah, I don't understand that set-up. I've only seen that set-up when a set has no base cards, like the 2010 Panini Century set.  You might want to ask the member who did all the changes (check the Change Log). Or ask Admin.

I have a 1995-96 Master Collection of Kraft hockey set. It is a binder with every card, disc, panel that was issued. It includes both Kraft and Jell-O products so my gut is that Post and Oscar Meyer are both subsiduaries of Kraft and are most likely included in the 1999-00 Kraft Collection. I got into quite a tug of war about a year and a half ago with a much more knowledgeable Kraft collector and had to step back as it got a bit stressful. I had been in contact with Admin about things quite regularly and have all the emails still saved on here and on my computer. I do not remember who it was but I am sure they can answer your questions.

No matter what the argument someone may put forward about this being an insert, it is against all the rules of listing sets on this site. If so that would make all Stadium Club issues of 1991 on as inserts of the Topps set of the same year. That would only make sense to an absolute *****.  

Again, just like in the discussion of numbering cards, the idea is to list sets and cards so that all members can easily find the cards they have of any given set. This site is not for one member's listing of his personal collection in the manner he chooses to collect.

I just recall it being like a chinese pro ping pong game and I do not remember how it all shook out ...... maybe Admin can remember how things went. Look the 1995-96 Kraft maybe that will tell us something.

Looking back at my emails, 1993-94 was how Admin and myself corrected that set. I gave them the checklists and Admin created the set. So that is how it was Admin intended it to look, not me. My emails say that we also corrected 94-95 (have not looked yet) and then we ran into the issues with the member that collected the food issues and we stepped back.

I sent an inaccuracies message to Admin about it asking that it be reverted to individual sets like it was before the change log changes were made.  If you have the Post / Upper Deck cards would you think to look under Kraft?  The way these are listed, we would need to make all Score sets "Pinnacle / Score". I have the two Post sets and it took some searching to find them the way they are listed.

I am hoping Admin does change it.

As forthe 1995-96 Kraft setlisting, "WHAT THE F***?" There are no card numbers that I can see on the scans and these are from different sets.  What a mess!!!

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe you could buy an "Master" album to store the different Kraft Foods issues in. But they were separate issues.  

And yes Post Cereals was part of Kraft Foods.

OH OH Sandy it looks like I may be partially involved in this, the other member I now know and it looks as though the three of us came up with that set configuration, I have over 50 emails pertaining to JUST Kraft sets. But it is all 2 years old now. Admin has stated in the emails that if the set has a Master Collection / Set in a binder, they feel that this is the way the sets should be entered in the DB. As for the 99-00 I sent him a checklist from the Charlton Standard Catalog of Hockey Cards 16th Edition and it appears they made the set up based on that list which follows suit with 93-94 Kraft. I can send you a copy of the checklist in my Charlton to show how it is listed. I have not found if I have evidence of a Master Collection Set / Binder but am still digging. Again these are entered as per Admin as I have an email from them asking me to look at how they are entered. But again with all three of ours input.

But, could you buy the Master Set; binder and all the cards. Or was it just the binder to put the cards in?
