1982 Topps E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial Trading Cards and Stickers

This is a collection of nine vintage non-sport trading cards and stickers produced by Topps in 1982, featuring imagery from Steven Spielberg's classic film 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial'. The assortment is displayed in a standard 3x3 protective plastic pocket page. Five of the items are base set trading cards featuring the characteristic red 'film strip' border design, showcasing iconic scenes such as E.T. wrapped in a blue blanket, E.T. hiding among plush toys, and the human characters Mary, Gertie, and Elliott. Two of the items (bottom center and right) feature solid blue and yellow backgrounds with close-up portraits of the titular alien character. The center row features two sticker inserts, which are distinctive for having multiple small 'stamp-sized' character portraits per card rather than a single large image. Physically, these cards are standard 2.5 by 3.5 inches, printed on cardstock typical of the early 1980s. The printing displays the saturated, slightly grainy color palette associated with Topps' production during this era. Manufacturing marks at the bottom of the cards indicate copyright information to Universal City Studios, Inc. and 1982. In terms of condition, the cards appear to be in mid-grade to high-grade state, though visible through the plastic, some centering shifts are evident—a common trait for this set. No major staining, creases, or corner blunting is immediately apparent from the provided resolution, though the plastic sleeve shows some light surface scuffing. These items represent a peak period of cinematic tie-in merchandising and are highly nostalgic collectibles for fans of 1980s cinema.
