Yokel Duck (Mighty Mouse Playhouse) - Post Sugar Crisp Cereal mask (1957) - backside

This vintage mask features Yokel Duck, one of the quirky supporting characters tied to the Mighty Mouse Playhouse era of children’s television. Issued in 1957 as part of Post Sugar Crisp’s promotion, this was one of six character masks printed directly on the back of cereal boxes.

The design captures Yokel Duck’s wide-eyed, country-bumpkin expression and straw hat—an instantly recognizable mid-century cartoon style. These masks were made to be cut out and worn, which makes surviving full-panel examples like this one exceptionally hard to find.
