I am happy to see these cards again, I was a big fan of the garbage band, I bought them in large quantities and I remember that the first ones I saw brought them from the United States, although over time I did not know what I did, I even think they threw me It was learned that after they left, they were forbidden and what most comes to my mind is that they said they had satanic messages and that they contained some type of drug, and that by grotesque images that could distort the minds of children and adolescents , I remember that at that time the oldest (between 12 and 15 years old) were the worst, always every time they saw other children (from 7 to 9 years old) playing soccer quietly in the street whenever they could take the ball and they threw it kicking it very hard to the top of the sky and as far as possible ... they really seemed to be very bad guys jejeje (I remember that they were fans of hard rock bands such as Iron Maiden, Dio, and others), many times we had to claim footballs that had fallen on the ceilings or in the courtyards of the neighbors, who confidently returned our soccer balls, sometimes without air, because of a bad rebound or a pet that damaged them with their teeth. Everything was always solved by buying a new ball. The relation of this short story is that there really was a time when there was a certain evil that was accompanied by the things you saw on TV (especially in the movies because there was no internet) and the messages in the music, although it was a healthy topic typical evil of adolescence, not like now because things 30 and older are different and the messages of the junk gang of the cards are quite innocent along with the messages of digital media and communication and the music to which the children and Today's teenagers are exposed. I would like to have some of those cards again, at least with the most punk messages that I liked the most.
Yeah I also used to collect wacky packages which were also by Topps. Haha.. yeah a lot of people believed a lot of weird things in the 80s. Everything was the devil. Rock music was for Satanists. Such silliness. But the 80s were definitely a unique and special time in history. I only wish I could have appreciated it more while it was happening!
