ANONYMOUS FILM STARS (DAVID NIVEN #24)

Issuing Company: Canadian Shredded Wheat
Country of Issue: Canada
Year of Issue: 1952
Color/B&W: Color
Number of Cards in Set: 30
Card Size: 1 7/8" x 3"
Issued as insert with what product: Shredded Wheat Breakfast Cereal

Notes: Checklist incomplete. Cards are blank-backed. These were apparently issued with Shredded Wheat breakfast cereal in Canada. It looks like all the films listed were J. Arthur Rank films.

Date Info: Both movies listed on the cards I've seen were issued in 1951 (one in December 1951), so I'm placing a 1952 date on this set. I also saw a writeup on this set in the January 1953 issue of "The Cameric Cigarette Card Club Notes and News" magazine, further reinforcing the 1952 date.

Thanks to Richard Minns for help with this checklist.
