Wacky Packages

Wacky Packages were a series of non-sports trading cards produced by the Topps company between 1967 and 1992. They featured parodies of well-known consumer products. For example, one card features 'Blisterine' rather than 'Listerine' and another features 'Neverready' batteries as a parody of 'Eveready Batteries'.
Some of the cards were created by such comics artists as Art Spiegelman, Bill Griffith, Kim Deitch, Drew Friedman, George Evans, Jay Lynch and Norman Saunders.
In 2004, an all-new series of Wacky Packages was released by Topps.
