Panini has manufactured these stickers in Italy for both Topps and O-Pee-Chee. These stickers showcase player photographs with white-bordered colors. They can be affixed onto an album that was available for purchase in stores. This set also includes the popular All-Star Players subset, which features a foil border. On the back of the Topps stickers, you will find enticing offers to either win a trip for four to Spring Training with the team of your preference or acquire a complete set of Topps baseball cards directly from Topps.O-Pee-Chee was exactly the same as the Topps set except that the horizontal backs carry a bilingual ad for O-Pee-Chee.
Panini's production of Topps and OPC's sticker set would come to an end in this year, as they would obtain their own license for 1988. Consequently, a scarce "hardback" version of this set emerged. The hardbacks, akin to the stickers Topps started manufacturing in 1988, were printed on a sturdier cardstock instead of the thinner paper stock used by Panini. It is speculated that the hardbacks served as a trial release and virtually identical to the more common Panini edition except for the copyright line on the back.
