Baron Von Redberry 1972 Pin

Baron Von Redberry was a cereal that launched in 1972, featuring a World War I era German pilot, presumably modeled on “Red Baron,” Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen. The cereal itself consisted of berry-flavored oat cereal with sweet berry marshmallows and tasted strongly of fruit punch. Baron Von Redberry was the nemesis of Sir Grapefellow, mascot of Sir Grapefellow cereal. In the vein of the cereal rivalries like Quisp & Quake bickering over which one was better, Redberry would proclaim, "Baron Von Redberry is der berry goodest!" and Grapefellow would counter, "Sir Grapefellow is the grapest!" in their various TV spots and print ads.
