SERIES 1 - WACKY CHARMS
As this Header Card shows, the "Charm" Set had Loops on Top
This Set has a mix of 3 Different Colors -- Yellow, Red, or Blue. It seems that this set was issued several times -- once as an all Amber set, again as all Pink, and also as all White.
SERIES 2 -WACKY TRINKETS
The "Trinket" Set had Flat Tops rather than Loops.
They had the same Shapes and Titles as the Charms, except that the Trinkets came in Yellow, Red, White, and Green
Two Bags, each containing 20 Green Band-Aches, have been found over the Years as old Vending Machine Stock. These were thought to be the only green trinkets, but more green titles have turned up, including Fink.
The Blister Card below, from the early 1970's, held 6 trinkets. Made in Hong Kong, they sold for 39 cents as Doll House Groceries.
Two Bags containing 12 mixed Titles were found marked "Made in China". It seems that someone was repackaging old stock and selling them as miniatures and craft items around 1980.
SERIES 3 - BOTTLE CHARMS
Another Set of Charms was released, using at least 28 of the 44 Titles. The Entire Set was comprised of Long-Neck Bottles, which seems rather Odd for products like Pancakes and Cereal. The Previous Sets had different shaped Containers for each Product.
These Bottles are taller than the Earlier Sets and came in a mix of 4 colors -- Green, Amber, Yellow, and Blue
Demented, Breadcrust Hash, Fink, and Band-Ache are in the Center of the Top Row.
It's not known if These were from the Same Company as the Original Charms, but They used Copies of the same Images. Notice also that Cheerios and Aunt Jemima have taller labels. Those titles were only used on the taller box shaped charms in earlier series.
