Sure you don't want to pick your least favorites instead?

Funny thing is, I missed out on the first series of Postcards so I have not pursued these at all and I don't think I know what any of them even look like!!

Series 1 is great - each one has Wackys incorporated in it.  Well worth picking up the unlimited set for $6.95.

I voted. I wish Peepers was on there, even though is wasn't officially in a series, just a show promo.

Should I add Peepers to the list? Does it count as a bonus card?

I'm not sure what it counts as, since it was never in a set. It's might too late to add it with people already having voted, unless people can change their vote, of if they can now pick 11. I would have voted for it but have already picked ten. But maybe it's still early enough to add it. What the heck do I know...

Let's save Peepers for the next list.

I would say no to it's inclusion as it's not really a Topps issue but rather specifically made for the show. Most people (present company excluded) probably haven't even seen it.

I can see excluding it if it's not an official part of the series. But not because of how many people have ever seen it or know about it. Maybe Neil can fill us in on where that card stands in the canon.

I'd say it water under the bridge at this point, but why isn't this a Topp's official release? When I look at my card, its got the Topps copyright, Topps logo all over it and a advert for the new series. Why isn't this considered a promo card like other trade show cards in the past?

You're right. It's a Wacky Packages postcard officially issued by Topps. It has all the credentials it needs.

I would agree to leave it out as well.  I don't associate Peepers with the postcard sets.

I consider it a promo for the postcard sets because of the logo on the back.

I'm not at home with my collection.  Remind me......what does the logo on the back say?

It says "Wacky Packages Postcards" - here's a scan.

If a wacky postcard parody painted by postcard maestro Neil Camera officially published by Topps with the Wacky Packages postcard logo on it doesn't count for anything then I know nothing about the collecting mentality.

IT counts for something, it just wasn't released as part of the post card sets.  I think it is one of the best titles.

I agree, it's one of the best!  Just don't know whether to call it Resee's or Peepers - I usually go with Peepers.

Only 28 people have voted on the postcard series so far while 73 have voted on Old School. I wonder if this represents the gap in the number of Old School collectors and postcard collectors.

By the way, anyone up for posting a voting list for ANS7?

It may have gotten lost in the shuffle with ANS7 coming out. Go ahead and post an ANS7 poll. Kiss Kat will win, hands down :0012394:

ugh, seriously? it shouldn't even be in consideration as it violates the rules of wackys by using a real world media character.

I just really like it. I would love to own the actual art for that one.

Kiss Kat is cool but it would not get my top vote...not even top 5.
