The designers at Topps took a bit of a risk in the mid-1980s when they pushed the miscreants known as the Garbage Pail Kids to the market, but it proved to be successful as the set became an instant hit. The initial release in 1985 consisted of two issues of (41) cards each, numbered 1A-41A and 1B-41B, with each issue utilizing the same artwork and different character names, and the format would continue for the next several years. The offered lot consists of series 1-8 A and B, or card numbers 1A-334A and 1B-334B and an additional Series 1 A and B, making for (2) examples of card 1A Nasty Nick, the key to the issue, one in NM/MT condition and one being EX/MT. The other fan favorite, 8A Adam Bomb, is EX/MT to NM in both cases. Most everything else is NM or better with occasional print and centering issues.
