In 1988, Topps thought it would be a good idea to reach out to kids. Someone in marketing said, "BIGGER CARDS!" and it was so. Someone else said, "COMICS ON THE BACK!" and it was so. And another said, "SEVEN IS A GREAT NUMBER!" Thus, there are seven cards per pack. Finally, a street vendor happened along and said, "Hey, wanna buy some shirts?" Hence, the Topps Store peddled "Toppswear" through standard-sized cards included in the packs.
I thought about how I wanted to post these, and I believe I will let them stand on their own. I will say, before we going, that I actually managed to get a pretty good pack of players!!
