Honeycomb Hideout - 1976

Kids from the 1970s will remember this box front with the smiling Honeycomb kid. This box of Post Honeycomb cereal was from late in 1976 with an expiration date of June 1977.

The featured premium is for Super Lite-Up Stickers, which most of us promptly stuck to our wall or door, only to upset our parents.

On the back side of the box we get a rare glimpse of the kids-only Honeycomb Hideout.

    That would've been the place to hangout or I guess hideout! I wonder who that kid was? He didn't become as popular as Mikey!

    Honeycomb's big...yeah, yeah, yeah! It's not small...no, no, no! Honeycomb's got a big, big taste! Big, big crunch for a big, big bite!

    This is the coolest blog I've come across in a long, long time!

    I posted on the Honeycomb Hideout and King Ding Dong, and then I came across this site on Flickr.

    Thanks for the good stuff.
