Product Details
Sex-crazed teenagers seem like a strange subject for a set of trading cards. But it's Grease we're talking about here, one of the most beloved movie musicals of all-time.
It's also one of the most popular set of movie cards not named Star Wars from the late 1970s.
1978 Topps Grease Set Details
Spanning two series, the 1978 Topps Grease set has 132 cards. The checklist is split evenly between the two series with 66 cards in each.
Other than the number, Series 1 cards can be spotted by their pink borders. For the Series 2 cards, the borders are green.
Card fronts are standard for the time. Besides the colored border, there's a large shot from the film or a promotional shot. The Grease logo sits on the bottom-left corner with the card number. Backs are a mix of "Movie Facts" and puzzle pieces.
1978 Topps Grease also has 22 stickers, 11 for each series. These were inserted one per pack.
The image on the sticker is designed to look like it's set inside of a film strip. Series 1 Stickers have a blue strip and Series 2 opts for orange. The backs are blank.
1978 Topps Grease trading cards are still popular today, thanks in large part to the movie's following. They're not rare, although the borders can make finding top-condition cards a little more difficult. Given its age, this is a very affordable set.
