Gpk From Canada

Canada's only Garbage Pail Kids series arrived under the familiar title banner, manufactured by the O-Pee-Chee company as a close counterpart to the United States Series 1 lineup. While foreign printings often departed from domestic dimensions, these Canadian stickers retained the standard 2.5" x 3.5" measurements, and the text across the fronts and backs remained identical to the American version.

Each full box held forty-eight packs, with four stickers and one thin stick of gum tucked inside every wrapper. The Canadian printings were produced strictly with matte backs, and the cards were often miscut or left with distinctly rough edges. With eighty-two cards and six specific variations for 5ab, 8ab, and 29ab, the complete set totals eighty-eight cards, making up the whole of Canada's card run alongside a selection of French-Canadian items released by Imperial Toy.
