I have been a bit of a fan of the food issues throughout the years. When I first got into baseball in the late 70s, RC Cola was selling cans with current ball players on them and I remember buying several. Over the years, I have added more cans, a few iron-on/transfers and other things. Can't say I recall RC Cola being something I really wanted to drink back then, but the baseball cans sure were cool.
I am always wanting to add unique food promotional items/cards related to sports, especially the soda items. This past week I saw an item I had never seen before and was unaware of. I probably overpaid and will see them pop up all the time now, but I just had to grab the lot. It was the Johnny Bench transistor radio, shaped like a RC Cola can and a ballcap advertising it. I would love to find an ad that showed the promotion and how you obtained the radio next.
Anyway, along with that, I found some other neat stuff RC put out over the years. All great stuff. The Unitas is mine, also a new pick-up. The rest are just scans I found online.
