Topps had chewing gum in the early 1980s called "Thirst Break," and it came in various wax-paper wrappers much like Bazooka Joe. There were 56 different "Sports Facts" comics in all, but most were dedicated to baseball, basketball, and football. There were a total of five hockey-related wrappers, and two of them are shown here – the only Bruins represented are Gerry Cheevers and Bobby Orr – though the latter is often misrepresented as Bobby Hull, who had two wrappers out of the five.
As an oddball/food release, this isn't really in my wheelhouse, but these are interesting wrappers and they were easy enough to come by in acceptable condition (notice that neither is in spectacular shape).
