Taters (The Tramp) - Kelloggs Corn Flakes False Faces mask (1953) - backside (French)

Part of the 1953 Kellogg’s “False Faces” series, this mask features Taters (The Tramp), a character design that captured the playful, cartoonish advertising style of the early 1950s. This is the French-language edition, making it even more unusual and desirable, since most surviving examples are English-only.

Masks like these were printed directly on the backs of cereal boxes for kids to cut out and wear—meaning most were destroyed in childhood play. To find one still intact, especially with the French packaging, is a rare treat for collectors of Kellogg’s ephemera.

Measures approx. 10" × 11"

Rarity & Value: False Faces masks are collectible in any form, but non-English variants seldom surface, especially in good condition. A solid mid-century premium piece.
