Yeti Wip

Wacky Packages are a series of trading cards featuring parodies of American consumer products.

Recently, this image by Smokin' Joe McWilliams was produced as a sticker in the series:



A bit of trivia:

One of the stickers in 1985 was a parody of the Cabbage Patch Kids. Topps liked what they saw and asked the artist to begin creating idea sketches and paintings for a new sticker series based on it. Thus, the Garbage Pail Kids were born.
