Known in the hobby as the 1955 Dairy Queen white set, these statues were
actually issued by Tastee-Freez in
1956. The statues were manufactured by
Big League Inc., and are virtually
identical to the
Big League Stars
bronze colored set issued by the
company in blister packs that same year.
When you ordered an "All Star Sundae"
with your favorite toppings or flavors,
the statue was mounted with the
"lifelike miniatures of big League
baseball stars."
These statues were given away by Tastee-Freeze in a "Coloring Contest"
where you could win $10,000. in cash
prizes. "Paint color on these white
plastic miniatures lifelike statuettes
of famous American and National League
All Star Ball Players" and You may win
one of 266 cash prizes. Contest Rules,
instructions and entry blanks were made
available free at any Tastee-Freez
Store. The key player in the 18
statuette set is Mickey Mantle. The
checklist below is the same as the
blister pack set issued by Big League
Inc., and players are listed in
alphabetical order.
