3. The 2006 Topps Match Attax World Cup card set gave then-18-year-old Lionel Messi what rating (out of 10) for “Attack”?

4. Guess the print run without going over: 2021’s Star Wars: I am Your Father’s Day set.

5. This 1965 Topps set featured two images, but you could only see one at a time. Subjects included “Casey Stengel Wins”/”Casey Stengel Loses”, Connie Francis/Bobby Darin, and Mickey Mantle/Yogi Berra.

7. The back of this German World Cup participant’s card applauds his “svelte physique,” which allows him to “slither through opposing defenses.”

8. This 1963 set based on a popular TV show has a card that brags, “We get 10 gallons per mile.” 

9. The 1999 Topps “Pokémon the First Movie” set features a “Pikachu’s Vacation” card that lists 14(!) characters on the back who were granted the day off. How many can you name?
