1988 Topps Stickers #34 Variation Roger Craig on Back

     



     This is a variation of Herschel Walker's 1988 Topps Sticker set that I have tried to find for a long time. It's the one that features Roger Craig of the San Francisco 49ers on the reverse.  These sticker cards have many variations.

     One side is a peel off sticker of a particular player, the other side has a cardboard card image of a different player, with the word Super Star at the top.  So far, I have found four different versions of the Herschel Walker stickers.  I honestly don't know how many are out there.

1988 Topps Superstars Stickers/Sticker Back Herschel's Variations in the Set

     There are several variations of each players card in the 1988 Topps Superstars Stickers/Sticker Back set.  This is a confusing set. From what I can garner, the Sticker set is 173 players.  The front of the "Sticker" is just what you'd think, a peel off sticker, while the back is a picture of a different player than is featured on the front. 
     For example, here is Herschel Walker's "sticker front":
   

There are several "backs" of this card, depicting a different player. For example,
This one, showing Stanley Morgan, and this one:
showing Freeman McNeil.   There is also a variation which has Randall Cunningham on the back. There are more I'm sure.

Next we get to the subset of Superstar Sticker Backs cards, which have 67 in the checklist. Herschel has two card #'s in the set, #'s 43 and 44.

First we'll look at #43
I have no idea exactly how many different backs there are for Herschel's #43 in this set, but I have come across six so far.  I'm guessing there is probably 10 different backs for each player in the set.
Here's what I've got so far:
Rick Donnelly, Mike Munchak

Vinny Testaverde, Ronnie Harmon

James Jones, Todd Christensen

James Griffin

Darrell Green

LeRoy Irvin, Mike Merriweather.

Again, these are just some of  the variations on the other side of Herschel's #43 card in the set.  In a future post, I'll list some of the variations for his #44 card.
