I picked up a variety of 70's packs recently, and this was one of them: 1978 Topps Close Encounters of the Third Kind. There are 66 cards in the set with 11 stickers. Interestingly, Richard Dreyfuss, the main actor in the movie, is missing from the set.
The fronts feature stills from the movie, are generally cut off-center, and shout "Hey, I was made in the 70's, man!" pretty loudly. The cards have red borders that surround the image and the car number. The card numbers are on the front because the backs feature something different, which you will see in a minute. The fronts also have a caption and copyright information:
As promised, here are the backs. Some feature "Movie Facts" and other have puzzle pieces. Some of the pieces are just black background with a border. That should be fun for the kids, right? Haha!
I remember seeing the movie in the theater as a kid and I'm sure I spent more than a few quarters buying packs of these. I do wish they had the mashed potato tower, though.
