Product Highlight: 1990 Good Humor Big League Ice Cream Bar Baseball Bat Autograph Stick

Products come in some elaborate packaging today.  You have to cut, tear, rip, and occasionally use a flamethrower just to access the cards.  It can be ridiculous.  Not to mention drive the price up.

How about having to eat ice cream in order to see what you got?  That’s exactly what needed to be done with the 1990 Good Humor Big League Ice Cream Bar Baseball Bat Autograph Stick set.  The set consists of (26) sticks shaped like miniature baseball bats.  Players are listed in alphabetical order, and numbered accordingly.  Every stick has a facsimile signature on the barrel.

Here’s the checklist:

• Jim Abbott #1
• George Bell #2
• Wade Boggs #3
• Bobby Bonilla #4
• Jose Canseco #5
• Will Clark #6
• Eric Davis #7
• Carlton Fisk #8
• Kirk Gibson #9
• Dwight Gooden #10
• Ken Griffey Jr. #11
• Von Hayes #12
• Don Mattingly #13
• Gregg Olson #14
• Kirby Puckett #15
• Tim Raines #16
• Nolan Ryan #17
• Bret Saberhagen #18
• Ryne Sandberg #19
• Benito Santiago #20
• Mike Scott #21
• Lonnie Smith #22
• Ozzie Smith #23
• Cory Snyder #24
• Alan Trammell #25
• Robin Yount #26

I know what you’re thinking.  “Those are cool.  But how would I store them?”  You’re in luck.  Good Humor made a special album that was available through a mail-in offer.  That album is probably more collectible than the actual sticks because you rarely see it.

Not a whole lot of value can be found with these sticks.  They’re all over the place.  None of them sell for more than $5.  Anyone still have a box sitting in the freezer?
