About this book

Celebrate one of the most beloved collectibles phenomena of the 1970s with this colorful treasury of classic Wacky Packages sticker art.

Known affectionately as "Wacky Packs," the hilarious Topps spoofs of everyday consumer products became a pop culture sensation, even outselling the company's baseball cards for a time.

Filled with iconic send-ups such as Quacker Oats, Jail-O, Weakies, and many more, this nostalgic collection showcases the irreverent humor and inventive artwork that made Wacky Packages a playground favorite for generations of fans.

Few collectors realize that Wacky Packages helped launch the career of Art Spiegelman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning creator of Maus. Featuring an exclusive interview with Spiegelman about his early years and long relationship with Topps, this volume offers a fascinating look at the creative minds behind one of America's most enduring collectibles.

The book also highlights work by legendary cartoonists and illustrators including Kim Deitch, Bill Griffith, Jay Lynch, Norm Saunders, and others, making it as appealing to comics enthusiasts, graphic design fans, and students of advertising history as it is to longtime collectors.

Equal parts nostalgia trip, art collection, and cultural history, Wacky Packages is the definitive celebration of the stickers that delighted kids, skewered consumer brands, and became a lasting part of American pop culture.
