2017 Topps Garbage Pail Kids Classic Checklist

2017 Garbage Pail Kids Classic was a Topps.com online exclusive, sold as 2017 Topps On-Demand Set #8. It went on sale on 28 September 2017 for a seven-day window, to 5 October 2017, and was sold only as a complete set of 40 stickers with one hand-drawn sketch card. The all-new art, by Brent Engstrom and Joe Simko, returns to gags in the style of the original series. The reported final print run is 156 sets.

What's in the checklist

• Base: 40 stickers, 20 subjects with A and B names, numbered 1a to 20b
• Parallels: none
• Inserts: none
• Sketch cards: one 1/1 sketch card in every set, by 32 artists, listed by artist

Grading considerations

The sticker fronts show the name but no card number, so match the printed name to the checklist, and remember the A and B names share the same art. Check centering and the sticker corners and edges, and look over the surface under angled light for print lines and scratches. Each sketch card is a one-of-one drawing; identify the artist from the signature and the card back.

Sources and caveats

Topps' original product listing is no longer online and no Topps checklist PDF was found, so this checklist was assembled from secondary checklists and published card images, cross-checked against each other. Names are as printed on the cards. The 20b name, split across the nameplate as "DENNY- TURES" on some lists, is joined. Artist names follow the sketch artist list Topps published with the sale; secondary lists give fuller or different forms of a few of them. The print run is as reported after the sale, not a serial number.
