Mars Attacks Cards
Written: January 25, 2008 In: vintage
The card above looks like Tim Burton’s Mars Attacks!, but it’s from the popular science fiction trading card series Mars Attacks. The bubble-gum cards were released by Topps in 1962, created by Brown and Woody Gelman and were the base of inspiration to Burton’s film. The cards were painted by the famous pulp-comic artist, Norm Saunders. Check the other 65 cards on the Mars Attacks Archives Gallery. (via Pez)
