Allee Willis’ Kitsch O’ The Day – Saturday Night Fever Bubblegum
Really really nasty cheap packaging on this pack of gum and 6 “full color” movie cards put out by Paramount Pictures Corp in 1977. Six dark photos printed on incredibly flimsy barely card stock, the back of which looks to be a cut up overstock movie poster with nary a fact about John Travolta or the film printed anywhere. Boasting that the Super Bubble gum inside blows larger bubbles I doubt it very much as there’s only half a stick of gum included – not a even a full pancake of dextrose and corn syrup. Such a classic film is worthy of a finer chewing experience, altho the packaging catapults this to high Kitsch status.

oh my god…i have superman cards (from the christopher reeve films), E.T. cards and Pee-Wee cards…..but these are topps!!
“…the back of which looks to be a cut up overstock movie poster…”
If you collected the entire set, you could arrange them into a large version of the movie poster. Was common on trading cards in the 70′s.
@Michigan JFrog – Thanks for the tip!
