Topps continued to capitalize on the popularity of television shows by issuing the Get Smart set in 1966. The set was issued in panels of 2 that, when separated, were square in size. The set is black and white artwork with gray or cream backs. It appears that the cream backed cards are somewhat tougher than are the gray backed cards. The cards follow the exploits of Maxwell Smart and agent 99--played by Barbara Feldon. The two were secret agents for the U.S. Government and were constantly battling the agents of KAOS. The bumbling of Maxwell Smart has been compared to a combination of James Bond and Inspector Clouseau of the Pink Panther fame. The (66) card set is popular with collectors of 1960's Topps TV series.
This lot of (9) Panels and (1) Secret Agent Kit card are in VG to EX condition, averaging around VG. Great group for the set builder of this popular set from the quirky 1960's television show of the same name.
