Ad for Wheaties cereal, sponsor of this giveaway premium, offering Disney character masks on the back of every Wheaties box to cut out and wear. Eight different masks are offered: Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Pluto, Brer Rabbit, Dumbo, Cinderella, and Bambi.

Full figures of Donald Duck and his nephews are shown holding-up the various masks. Donald Duck is in a stage magician's outfit, with top hat and magic wand. The first nephew (from left to right) is holding a mask of Lucifer the Cat, a character not mentioned in the ad copy.

A rare advertisement for Wheaties cereal that does not feature an athlete of any kind.
