Ha so cool, thanks for posting.  I’m sure there will be a number of opinions on this but I wouldn’t consider them bootleg just more like extra stock.  Years ago I bought a copy of a limited print that Frazetta had released in the 70s.  The print is unsigned and unnumbered but was just extra stock that the printer had that was found when they finally closed shop.  I’d consider your set to be similar to that.  Something fun and cool to have but not necessarily part of a complete collection.

Sorry to bring up an 9 year old thread... the story as I understand it was that Topps had a falling out with their then current printer who then withheld everything they had printed on hand. Topps moved to another printer and these Parody Art Prints were released in 2015. A few years ago, the original 2014 art prints (along with a bunch of other material, mostly sports) made its way from the former printer to the secondary market. I have a complete set of the 2014 version, but they are not serial numbered like the 2015 version. What are your thoughts about a set like this? Do some of you consider it a 'bootleg' since it wasn't officially released by Topps?

Here is card number 1 front and back...

Here is a comparison of the copyright dates on the two versions, and the badly pasted over 2015's...

And finally, the only difference I can find (other than the dating) is for "Blue Beanie"... title changed color...

Do you happen to know what the numbers of Wackys were? I'd like to check mine out and see if any of them are wrong. Then, of course, they'll have to be replaced.

Thanks for the comments. My main childhood collection is long gone as well as my extras at the time. I usually was very meticulous in getting everything together and sorting everything out, but these must have just fallen through the cracks.

Here are the 2 stickers that were in the pack:



 The only 2 stickers that survived my childhood in NM-MT condition :)
roll the dice and get the Mrs Smalls graded, there are no 10's and like 4 9's on the market.  Centering might keep it an 8 or lower but I am not expert in the random world called PSA grading...

Saving some roughs is great, but I'm talking about the stories behind the early days. Like what was the reason Art parted ways with Topps? Or who made the decision to stop at 16, and why? These stories will fade away and vanish if no one writes them down and gathers them together. We might even be able to scrounge enough up to put a book together! Wouldn't that be a great way to celebrate Wacky Packages' longevity?
Yes, I think it's a great idea! How does one get started?
