I was trying to find more info on these. I thought "The Sport Americana Price Guide to the Non-Sports Cards" Number 4 would have some info but it's a stickler for covering American cards - not foreign editions of American cards. Does anyone know the set number or if there were any stickers?

These are season 3 in the US release. 143 US says, "Hey Bos -- Get Me Through to Charlie"

Have to admit calling him El Jefe is pretty funny. Big Grin

162 US card says "Calling for Help!"

Topps archive states Box had 36 packs, 3 cards per pack. Most likely used a different printer than the US versions. Given that I can't find a single sticker in Spanish and the low number of cards per pack I would guess they did not have them.

The box looked like this. Los Angeles De Charlie

Thanks Mykdude. I was wondering if they were 3-card packs because I found 3 together (all the seller had) in a bargain box years ago.

There's a Mexican "Six Million Dollar Man" card with a shot of Oscar Goldman at his desk and the title, "El Jefe de Steve."

Thanks for that link too. I copied the photos for reference.

No problem!

Every time I hear El Jefe now and can't help but think of Ash vs the Evil Dead show. Big Grin
