That’s an awesome group of prizes.

The pony would work great in an apartment building, in The Bronx.

That's got to be older than that. I was in the 5th grade when I remember that contest and that was around 1960

[@DebBurds]

I think they re-ran the contest. I remember this from around 1959-1960

I think that Dad's TV show, which Post sponsored, was already off the air by 1960. Although, Post might have continued with the contest on one of the other shows the company sponsored. Cheryl

I’ll bet no one really won a pony.

[@cherylrogersbarnett4924]

I'm pretty sure that Post awarded someone a pony but it certainly wasn't one that we had owned. With those contests, the prizes had to be awarded by the sponsors. Cheryl

That helps some with my digging. I’m on a quest to see if there’s a winners list somewhere? Or a story on who might have really won?

Roy and Dale would not have been partner to a lie.
