The Die-Cuts and Wacky Ads were the first Wacky Packages, designed in the late 60's. These are thick card-like perforated punch-out stickers that were designed to be moistened (like a stamp) before using them. There were 46 Die-Cuts and 36 Wacky Ads. 30 of the Die-Cuts were later used in the original series Wacky Packages of 1973. They did not sell very well at that time and today are quite rare and valuable. For reference, I have included a list of Die-Cuts and list of Wacky Ads.

![]() | WACKY ADS
Year issued: 1969 Number of cards: 36 Harder to find cards: Good and Empty Summary: The Wacky Ads were 3 1/8" x 5 1/4" cards and, like the Die-Cuts, they have punch-out style stickers. Several had multiple stickers on a single card. Some call them the "Wacky Billboards". The rarest one is Good and Empty since there were no double prints, which makes it more valuable. |
