A set of four baseball
playing tips, 78 RPM records were made
available by H-O Oatmeal in 1954. Each retail
box of H-O Instant Oatmeal included one
randomly packed premium record, along
with a mail-in offer to obtain the
other three. "Send .25 Cents in coin
and 2 H-O Instant Oatmeal box tops" you
could then choose from any 3 of the
four New York "Big League Baseball Stars" records
listed on the order form. They could
only be ordered in sets of three.
The four records included:
____How to Catch, by Roy Campanella
(Brooklyn Dodgers)
____How to Pitch, by Allie Reynolds (New
York Yankees)
____How to Play First Base, By "Whitey" Lockman (New York Giants)
____Tips on Batting, by Duke Snider
(Brooklyn Dodgers)
The record side of all four discs pictures the
same Yankee Stadium black & white World Series
game in progress, with the featured
Player in an action pose in the
forefront. The title of the record is
at the top, and the players name on the
bottom. The reverse side has a color
player portrait, and facsimile
autograph.
