1994 Mars Attacks “Super Premium Trading Cards” Advertisement

Topps’ Mars Attacks trading cards (find at Amazon.com*) has gone through four waves of popularity: In the sixties, the line was launched, and then re-discovered in the eighties, then expanded in the nineties, and then brought back earlier this decade. This is four separate times when that gruesome, wacky artwork was placed before kids, though I have to believe that the nineties was the last time that kids were collecting more than the adults.
