You could say I've been collecting Hot Wheels since I was a kid. But in the 1990s I was buying a lot.
I kind of fell in love with these Model T Kellogg cars. So I decided to buy a bunch. Usually when you see these sets for sale you only see 4 cars. I have sets of six.
The hardest car to find is Eggo car. I was lucky enough to find someone who had four in the Box.
KELLOGG'S CEREAL
John Harvey Kellogg, the man who created Corn Flakes, produced the cereal in the late 19th century and marketed it as a “healthy, ready-to-eat anti-masturbatory morning meal”.
He was a Seventh-day Adventist and worked as a physician who staunchly believed in celibacy and that sex was unhealthy and immoral.
The company was founded as the Sanitas Food Company in 1900 by the brothers W.K. Kellogg and Dr. John H. Kellogg.
