1955 Disney Barratt Mickey's Sweet Cigarettes Set explained (3 of 36)

This card #1 - titled Gus is the only representation from Cinderella in the entire set. How is there no Cinderella character card? The animated movie debuted in 1950. If there's a flaw with this set, it's because Gus is the #1 card and there's no Cinderella card. That decision is very perplexing to me.
Here's the info from the back of the card. And the stories told in so few words on the back of each individual character card is why I believe that this set has significance in the world of Disney cards.
Card #1 - Gus
"Gus is one of the two little mice that befriend Cinderella in her loneliness in the wicked Stepmother's House. Lucifer the cat is always chasing Gus but in spite of this Gus still stays the tubbiest of mice."

1955 Disney Barratt Mickey's Sweet Cigarettes Set explained (2 of 36)

This will be quick. The 35 card 1955 Barratt Mickey's Sweet Cigarette set was released, as best understood by me, to be a single card with candy cigarettes. Based on the two pack "wrappers" that I have in my possession (front/back images attached), I would estimate that 4-5 candy cigarettes were placed in these packs. The goal of Barratt was to sell candy and the aspect of a card was a novelty. Again, my opinion.
What's interesting is that the other item shown is a box that I understand to contain the 1957 Mickey's Sweet Cigarette cards (50 card checklist) whereby the orange box likely contained 10-12 candy cigarettes, with a card packed inside.
I have no more specific information than this other than examining the packaging.
If the community could locate and identify for me in-tact packaging of either the 1955 or the 1957 Mickey's Sweet Cigarette packs, that would be fantastic.

Cheers.
