Kelloggs Dig 'Em Frog Advertising Costume

 

Here's a fun item, guaranteed to bring back some childhood memories. This is an advertising costume of the Dig 'Em Frog, the beloved mascot of Sugar Smacks cereal. The costume was used by Kelloggs for personal appearances at grocery stores, fairs and other public gatherings. The costume includes a fiberglass head, yellow t-shirt, green tights and gloves. The shirt and tights are small sized, as the costume was designed to be worn by a petite teenager or a "little person" so that small children would not be "overwhelmed" by the frog.
