I first became acquainted with Wacky Packs in about 3rd or 4th grade. I used to beg for them all the time. My dad would sometimes surprise me with a pack or two when he got home from work. I got them in my Christmas stocking and as a reward for good grades or good behaviour. There were about 10 stickers in each pack, and a stick of crappy gum that I chewed anyway. I gave away my original collection back in the 70s but I was able to purchase back my entire collection from that era off eBay a few years ago.
To this day, I still refer to some products by their Wacky Pack names. 'Kentucky Fried Fingers, they're chicken lickin good' remains my fave (bottom left).
Dutch Boy paint will always be Ditch Boy to me. Same with Land O'Quakes butter (Land O Lakes is the real name).
Mop & Glo goes on my grocery list as Mop & Glop.
The backs of the cards formed a puzzle of one of the stickers.
Did anyone else collect these from the mid-70s?
