Set of the Month

1987 K-Mart is a 33-card boxed set produced by Topps. The set celebrates the retailer's 25th Anniversary and has a design similar to the 1982 K-Mart set -- but printed on glossy cardstock. The set is subtitled, "Stars of the Decades" and is broken down into three, eleven-card subsets: 1960s (1-11), 1970s (12-22), and 1980s (23-33).
