New Kids on the Block (Series 1) Big Step Productions / Topps - 1989
Note: Each regular card number had three background variations for the card front, and each sticker number had two variations (featuring the red-border or yellow-border puzzles). A complete variation set is thus 264 cards plus 22 stickers. (I'm not counting the "*" and "**" variations; life's too short.) The descriptions I provide for the variations are hoped to be usable without having all of the other variations handy. When the edge is described as "mountains" I mean a series of fairly jagged peaks, like the Rockies. When I list "two-tone" borders, the border is split the long way by a series of gentle peaks, like the Appalachians. Happy hiking ...
