Transcript

Hello, it's PEP. The super delicious cereal presents the adventures of Superman. Faster than a spinning bullet. More powerful than a local man. It was a little building to the single bounce. It's a sign. It's a bird. It's a plane. It's Superman.

That's it, Superman. Today, as hard as he is due for a big surprise. We'll join him with editor Perry White in a moment. But right now, Dan McCullough has a question for him. That's right, gang. Today I've got a question for you. It's a technical question, so let's see what you can do with it.

Which plane has four engines? The Douglas C-54 Army Transport or the Vought-Ex-Galibur Navy Transport? Well, actually, that's a trick question because both are four engine planes, but I'm sure it didn't stump you, especially if you've been lucky enough to get models of both these planes in Kellogg's pet packages.

Because that sort of information is printed right on the back of each model. You see, there's a really keen colored cardboard plane model right inside every single package of that super delicious breakfast cereal, Kellogg's Pet.

Now there are 14 different models you can get all together, and on the back of each model is a list of valuable pointers about that particular plane. Two of the models you can get are the Douglas C-54 and the Vautic Scalabert, which I mentioned earlier, and others are the Russian 118, the British Sunderland Flying Bolt, the British

Handley Page Handen, and the Curtis Helldiver. Best of all gang, you don't have to send in a single penny for any of these planes. Not even a box stop. There's a plane right inside every single pet package. So gang, be sure your mother gets you a package of those golden delicious whole wheat flakes tomorrow. And remember the name, PEP.
