1987 Zoot U.S. of Alf Stickers Series 1

 

In this post, we're showcasing a pack of 1987 Zoot U.S. of Alf Stickers. The wrapper is a paper/wax combo whose seal let loose many year ago. The wrapper features ALF in the lower left corner telling us to "Collect all 50 states!" This is the 1st Series, though it appears there were no subsequent versions. The wrapper also shows the Zoot branding at the top and the middle is dominated by a rough liine art outline of the United States filled in blue with a thin black border and a soft white glow.  Each pack has 5 stickers. Theoretically, one could complete the set with just 11 packs (including the title card).

There were 50 stickers (one for each state) plus a Title Card in the set.

The first three stickers include Washington, Nevada, and Florida. Each sticker is full color with the state's name at the top in various fonts and colors. The stickers each highlight something about the represented state as ALF has a witty/sarcastic phrase to go along with the image shown. In some cases, the state's shape is shown, but not all stickers have the actual state outline. 

Some of the stickers show off the state's "claim to fame," as shown in the South Carolina sticker:

Still, other stickers provide tourist attraction suggestions, like the one from Virginia:

The backs of the stickers show the sticker's number in the upper right corner along with the "Bend & Peel" instructions for folks who aren't sure how stickers work. The artwork mimics that of the wrapper, though the U.S. is filled in red instead of blue. A list of state facts about the featured state displays the Capital, motto, attractions, and other information. The left side of the card is dominated by ALF.
