How can you tell the year of Wacky Packages

Hi, this is the 1st time I have posted on this board. I have been looking at some of the Ebay listings for Wacky Packages. I collected these for a couple of years (1973/1974). I remember many of the stickers, but also noticed some of the same stickers issued again in 1979( series 1). Is the printing date listed on the bottom of the card? If not, how do I tell if a Liptorn or Vicejoy is from 1973 or 1979? thanks, Tom

    Hi Tom and welcome to the boards!

    I am currently re-collecting the original 1973-1975 Series 1-16 with my two Boys, we have 245 different wackys at the moment with another 45 or extras to trade... we are also working on the puzzle checklist and have a few extras as well.

    As for the 1979-80 Reprints, it's easy to tell since they are numbered and the 1973-75 issues are not.

    Best of luck with your Wacky Collecting and please let us know if you have any questions or might like to make a trade.

    Mike
