1991 Topps Rocketeer Checklist, Trading Cards Info

Ad

The initial response for Disney’s The Rocketeer, was a little tepid by blockbuster standards. It has a lot of fans now and has lived on in the decades since. But when it comes to trading cards, they have been somewhat overlooked.

Either that or just so many were printed that they still have been absorbed. It was 1991 afterall, a time when trading cards were peaking.

The set takes a simplistic approach. It follows the pattern of Topps movie sets released throughout the 1970s and ’80s where there are base cards, some stickers and that’s it.

The 99-card main set covers the movie and its characters. The design is a bit of a throwback, infusing the same Art Deco feel of the film.

Stickers are a mix of photos and illustrations. Backgrounds vary while backs go together to form a puzzle. There are 11 in all with one falling every pack.
