I LOVE stickers! I loved them as a kid, I still love them now. If you walk around my house you will see file cabinets, stereo cases, tool boxes and book shelves covered in stickers.
As a kid you could buy Topps stickers and the corresponding sticker books at the snack bar at my Little League park. I think the book was a dollar, maybe 50 cents. I obsessively bought packs and traded to fill that book. I wish I still had them. By the mid-80s we were told that the stickers lost their value if they were stuck. This made them a whole lot less fun and I still have a 1984 unstuck sticker of Don Mattingly that was supposed to pay for my college tuition. Anyway, by 1989 I had stopped buying stickers. The cover price of 25 cents for 5 sticker cards seems fair. In the case of each sticker card, there is a sticker (or two) one side and a card of a different player on the other. I think I would have preferred it if the card and sticker corresponded. I can't tell who most of these guys are because there are no names on them. Here is what I got! In each case I will refer to the front side as the sticker side and the flip side as the card side.
