#187 Bob Aspromonte was found only on the 10 oz. Raisin Bran. His card was supposed to be on the 15 oz. Oat Flakes, but for some reason the 15 oz. Oat Flakes, although scheduled to have cards, never did.

Two sets that look very similar with two minor differences. The Post cards are slightly larger, width wise, than the Jello set, and the hairline rule separating the statistics is shorter on the Jello version. The easiest way to remember this is to compare a Jello and Post card side by side and then you won't ever forget the differences.

The easiest way to approach this set is to try and build a composite set. There are a number of short prints in both sets that are tough and they are different Post to Jello. For example, Post versions of Jim Bunning, Yaz, Jiminez, Floyd Robinson, Willie Davis, Billy Williams and Curt Flood are all really tough. The Jello versions of these cards are much easier to locate, but be aware that many dealers and Ebay sellers frequently try to sell these cards as Post (when they are actually the Jello version).

The overall Jello set is chock full of short prints. There are at least 40-50 different cards in the set that are harder to find. I think one of Ray Luurs' last cards in this set was Don Mossi - the Jello version is really tough to find, whereas the Post version is easy.

Last note - this set has the toughest card to find across any of the Post sets - Bob Aspromonte. He must have been found only on Bran Flakes (or some other tasteless cereal) because he is near impossible to find. Another toughie in either Jello or Post will be Jerry Adair.
