1.

1969 Nestle Milky Bar Chocolate Wrapper. “Great early example of the classic “Milky Bar Kid” on a wrapper.”

1989 Georgie Pie Batman The Movie Box. “A super box from the Batmania era.”

4.

1968 Kelloggs Frosties Jungle Jokes Cereal Box. “The oldest example of a NZ made Frosties box I have seen to date.”

1987 Walls KZ-7 Kiwi America’s Cup Ice Cream Wrapper. “Great graphics! I remember the hype around the America’s Cup well.”

6.

1970s Allens & Regina Big Charlie Chocolate Bubblegum Display Box. “My oldest Allens & Regina Display box, originally from the company director’s private collection.”

7.

Late 1980s Hudson Cookie Bear Cookies Packet.

8.

1997 Eta Ripples Monster Munches 12 Pack Chippies Packet. “I always enjoyed the original 1980s Monster Munch snacks, these may well be a clever knock off by Eta.”
