Set of the Month
1977 Topps Cloth Stickers is a 55-"card" set released as a test issue. The design on the front of the card (which features a velvet-like sheen) is virtually identical to the player's 1977 Topps card -- with some exceptions. The back of each card features information on how to peel the sticker. Eleven of the 55 stickers are short-printed. Each pack contained two cloth stickers and one of eighteen puzzle cards. The fronts of the puzzle cards have checklist information while the backs a piece of one of two 3X3 mosaics that, when assembled, create the 1976 American and National League All-Star team pictures.
