Wacky Packages (Topps)

This book shows the stickers big, not smaller than the originals in the unofficial similar works. Great work, Topps!

Muy buena impresión, el cubre portada es del mismo material que el de los viejos sobres de cromos, detalle que mezcla nostálgia con originalidad. Las reproducciones de los cromos originales es muy buena, además incluye un sobre aparte con stickers impresos para este libro.

Now I have that stupid song stuck in my head. But this little gem of a book brought back a lot of laughs long stifled since my childhood. We went nuts for Wacky Packages and we swapped and we traded and we bartered and all of that stuff. My neighbor had some real old vintage ones on her refrigerator that I would go crazy for. But it seems like they haven't included ALL of them. There has to be a sizable number of images that didn't make it into this book. Perhaps I'm mistaken and this book only offers up a few volumes in the series....I know there is stuff that I had that's missing from this book. But - anyway, if you grew up in the 60's and early 70's and you remember purchasing these things for 10 cents or so, this is a wonderful book that looks back on adolescence and hits the funny bone hard. It's short on words and descriptions, but that's fine. The laugh-out-loud images are enough. This book brought a huge smile to my face that didn't go away for a long time. It brought back a wave of great memories and for that, it's worth twice the price!!! I love it!

普通の製品パッケージ集ではなく、既存の物をパロディしたジョーク的画集でタイトルの『Wacky』は変ちくりんな、むちゃくちゃな、という意味だそうです。どれも駄菓子屋のガムのおまけでありそうなチープ感たっぷりのイラストばかり（笑）「こういうものか、なるほどね。」といった感じですが、人によってはツボな一冊ではないでしょうか。 Wacky Packages 』 Wacky Packages

This book is great for fans of comic style art (appearing in candy). Those who like to read reams of words will be disappointed. It is 95% pictures and maybe 5 pages max of written words. It's not even that informational, but the art is nice to look at and quite humorous. Each drawing gets its own page.
