[top middle]: "Any cereal keeps me feeling swell / ...as long as it's / Post Bran Flakes"; [bottom left]: YES, LIFE IS SWELL WHEN YOU KEEP WELL-with Post's (delicious!) / 40% Bran Flakes. You get all the "keep regular" benefits of bran- / in a cereal that tastes so good lots of people eat it for the flavor alone! / Maybe that explains why Post is the largest-selling bran flakes in the world. / "All post cereals happen to be just a little bit better"
