The blog design:related has a really great write-up on the new Wacky Packages book, published by The Topps Company in honor of the 35th Anniversary of Wacky Packages. The book is designed like the original Wacky Packages, with a wrapper on the outside and the gum and cards on the inside.

Art Spiegelman, one of the original Wacky Packs designers, wrote the forward.

UPDATE: My copy of the book just arrived, it really brings back memories.
