Italy Sgorbions Series 1 | Garbage Pail Kids World

LE
BANDE DEGLI SGORBIONS
(THE GANG OF THE
UGLIES)

The Sgorbions Collection N.1
were released throughout Italy in 1990 as well as in southern parts of Switzerland;
the Italian-speaking region. Topps Italy manufactured the sticker album cards
along with the French Les Crados and the Spanish La Pandilla Basura releases. The
set covers most of the OS1, OS2, OS5 and OS8 U.S. sets, not in any particular
order, with several reverse card back variations. The cards measure slightly
smaller than 2.5 x 3.5 inches and are non-die cut stickers. The Italian sets
are a direct reproduction of the French Les Crados and have a great gloss finish
with images that have been color saturated and faded out so they’re not as sharp
as the original versions.

—
The banner-style Header is used, as in the U.S. OS10
through OS15 GPK sets, considering the set was released after the U.S. lawsuit
and trademarked under ‘THE GARBAGE GANG‘ moniker. NOTE:
The Sgorbions banner is placed over the previous Les Crados banner or GPK logo
to block it out.

— Most
cards have different colored Nameplates compared
to the U.S. releases. Ex: card #62 EDMONDO Rubicondo; U.S. cards 73a
Gorgeous GEORGE and 73b Dollar BILL, and card #68 ANNA burgher; U.S. 185a FRAN
Furter and 185b Hot DOUG. Notice the banner placed over the character and the
misplaced card number.

—
Card #59 RICCARDO Superlardo (U.S. cards 172a NAT
Nerd and 172b CLARK Can’t) has the GPK Acronym erased
off of his shirt and ‘SUPER COMIC’ is removed from the comic book the character
is holding.

—
The OS1, OS2 and OS4 U.S. Reverse
Card backs are used for the 160 Sgorbions card set. The reverse card artworks
were painted by artist Tom Bunk, rendered from older Topps sets. See U.S. ‘GPK
History’ series sections for further information. The nose-picking box and wrapper
character is the most iconic GPK character in place of the ADAM Bomb mascot in
the U.S.

— Card
#140 JAMES Fond has the same Nomenclature as the
French Les Crados Series 1 card #84 JAMES Fond.

—
Cards #155, 156 and 157 are three Puzzle
Pieces for card image #3 GENNARO Pattumaro (U.S. cards 22a Junky JEFF and
22b Stinky STAN) and cards #158, 159 and 160 are three puzzle pieces for card
image #114 GENNARO Rockettaro (U.S. cards 53a Jolted JOEL and 53b Live MIKE). There
is no true puzzle, but these pieces are placed in the sticker album to complete
the picture.
