• Spider-Man: These stickers were produced by CEL in 1995 and there appear to be three prism variants to this sticker set. Many of the stickers contain a white border and some do not, implying there may also be a complete non-bordered sticker set and a white-bordered sticker set. However, only sticker #s 1, 3, 6, 7, 9, and 10 are confirmed to contain the white border. The three variants are 1) foil, 2) large circular prism (or "splotchy") finish, and 3) small circular prism ("sparkle" ) finish. While all three variants contain the same trademark information, it appears that only the large circular (splotchy) finish contain the text "Made in the USA" and are by far the rarest of the three versions. Also, based on availability the foil version appears to be the second rarest, with the small circular prism ("sparkle" ) version the most commonly available.

  1 Spider-Man	6 Hobgoblin
  2 Spider-Man, Carnage, Venom	7 Spider-Man
  3 Spider-Man	8 Shocker
  4 Kraven, Scorpion, Mysterio	9 Spider-Man & Dr. Octopus (all three variants shown here)
  5 Spider-Man	10 Venom
