These roughs are sold. However, others not shown here may still be available.

(series 3, 1986)
(Sold)

Art was deliberately folded horizontally and vertically to draw symmetrical urns and water reflections. These creases barely show.

An accidental diagonal crease runs up from bottom by "GARDENS" to the left side just above the horizon line. A large chunk (1/2" wide by 2 1/4" high) was also torn from lower left corner. This barely shows in scan but is more noticeable when seeing art.

*Topps assigned the final art to another artist (Tom Bunk), so I don't have a color rough for this GPK. The pose was changed -- final art has werewolf holding a bone, and wearing a diaper, and looks cuter.

I have seen scans from an unpublished printers proof sheet for GPK Series 16. It looks like this GPK was rejected, probably due to the gun and suicide theme, and it was replaced by a Pizza-face GPK that had appeared before on a GPK poster.
