The final season represents the conclusion of a story that has been building across nearly a decade — the narrative culmination of everything that began when a boy disappeared from Hawkins, Indiana, and a girl with a shaved head escaped from a government laboratory with powers that neither she nor the people who found her fully understood yet. This Green parallel card, numbered to just 99 copies, captures Season 5 cover art in the specific limited format that makes Topps Now collectibles the trading card world's most responsive documentation of pop culture moments as they happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things Season 5 Cover Art Card, Green parallel, numbered to 99 (#\/99).

The final season of Stranger Things carries both. The cultural significance of the series has been demonstrated across nine years of consistent audience engagement, critical recognition, and global conversation that has made the Duffer Brothers' creation one of the definitive pop culture properties of the 2010s and 2020s. The scarcity of this specific card — the Green parallel numbered to just 99 total copies — is fixed and documented by Topps, whose serial numbering of limited parallels is the established standard of authenticity in the trading card world. This is not a reproduction. It is one of exactly 99 Green parallels produced from this print run, period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🃏 The Topps Now Format and What It Delivers\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopps Now produces cards in real time — capturing moments, series events, and cultural milestones as they occur and releasing limited print runs that are never reprinted. The Green parallel at \/99 represents a specific tier in the Topps Now production hierarchy: below the base card in scarcity, which makes it more sought-after, and limited to a documented quantity that every collector in the Stranger Things card market can verify. The card condition is Mint — pulled from original packaging, handled with collector care, and stored in protective sleeves that maintain the card's surface quality and corner integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🔢 Numbered to 99\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSerial numbering on trading cards is the collector's guarantee of scarcity. This Green parallel is stamped with its individual serial number, establishing its place within the 99-copy print run as a permanent, documented feature of the card itself. For the collector who tracks print runs, who understands that \/99 is a meaningful threshold in the non-sports collectibles market, and who is building a Stranger Things card collection around the final season's release, this Green parallel is the tier that makes the collection substantive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🎬 Stranger Things fans building a complete Season 5 trading card collection\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Non-sports card collectors who track pop culture limited parallels\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Entertainment card investors who understand the scarcity value of numbered parallels\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Collectors who build around final-season release windows\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Topps Now collectors who follow the format across its entertainment property releases\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e📋 Card Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eCard Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e #STRA\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eParallel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Green\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003ePrint Run:\u003c\/strong\u003e Numbered to 99 (#\/99)\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eContent:\u003c\/strong\u003e Season 5 Cover Art\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCondition: NOS.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hall of Fame Sports Memorabilia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48097217773800,"sku":"2025-TN-ST-STRA-GREEN","price":449.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/2718\/4037\/files\/2025-topps-stranger-things-stra-green-99-season-5-cover-art-card-vintage-treasures-824.webp?v=1772721928"},{"product_id":"2025-topps-now-stranger-things-stra-ssp01-short-print-season-5-cover-art-card","title":"2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SSP01 Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card","description":"\u003ch2\u003e🎬 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SSP01 Super Short Print — Season 5 Cover Art Card\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe final season of Stranger Things arrived in 2025 having spent nearly a decade building one of the most culturally embedded fandoms in the history of streaming television. The Netflix series that debuted in 2016 as a supernatural mystery set in the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana — soaked in 1980s atmosphere, populated by a cast of young actors who became stars as the show grew, and built around a mythology of alternate dimensions and government experiments that captured the imagination of an audience that spanned age groups and continents — closed its run in Season 5 with a finale that brought the entire arc to its conclusion. Topps, the company that has documented the physical artifacts of pop culture in card form for generations, produced the Now series as the official licensed trading card documentation of the season. The SSP — Super Short Print — designation applied to this card is not a marketing embellishment. It is a production reality: the SSP01 was printed in a quantity so limited relative to the total set production that finding one represents a genuine scarcity event in the collecting market for this release. Cover Art #STRA-SSP01 is the first in the SSP subset, based on official Season 5 art, and it exists in fewer copies than the base cards, the standard parallels, and most of the numbered inserts in the Topps Now Stranger Things release by design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SSP01 Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card.

The Super Short Print classification — SSP — represents the most extreme version of that design: a card that was included in the production run at a ratio that makes pulling one from packs a meaningful event. Collectors who opened packs of 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things did not expect to pull the SSP01. The odds were structured against it. What that means for secondary market collectors is that the cards that do exist in the market arrived there because someone pulled one and chose to sell — a supply pipeline fundamentally different from standard base card availability. The SSP01 is not abundant. It was never meant to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🎥 Stranger Things Season 5 and the Farewell to Hawkins\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeason 5 carried the weight of conclusion — the expectation that every storyline seeded across the prior seasons would be brought forward, every character arc given its resolution, and the Upside Down mythology closed in a way that honored the audience that had followed the series from its first appearance. The Cover Art card captures the official visual identity of that final chapter — the artwork that Topps and Netflix sanctioned as the representative image for Season 5 in the cardboard documentation of the series. For collectors who followed Stranger Things across its full run, the Season 5 SSP01 is the exclamation point on a set that documented the conclusion of one of the defining streaming series of the 2010s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🌟 The Non-Sports Collectibles Market for Premium Entertainment Cards\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe non-sports trading card category has operated alongside the sports card market since the earliest years of the hobby — Topps itself built its business on non-sports cards before baseball cards became its signature product. The premium tier of non-sports collecting has always centered on scarcity: licensed sets from major entertainment properties, short print variants, and cards tied to the cultural moments that large audiences share. Stranger Things at its peak was one of the most-viewed series in Netflix history. The Season 5 Topps Now set is the licensed, authenticated card documentation of that conclusion, and the SSP01 sits at the most scarce tier within that documentation. For collectors building across entertainment IP rather than restricting to sports, the SSP01 is the acquisition that represents genuine scarcity within a set tied to a culturally significant property at the moment of its conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🎬 Stranger Things fans who build collections around the complete run of the series\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Non-sports trading card collectors who track licensed entertainment sets by Topps\u003cbr\u003e🎬 SSP and short print specialists who target variance and scarcity within sets\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Netflix era pop culture collectors documenting streaming television's defining properties\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Cover art and alternate card collectors completing the Topps Now Stranger Things Season 5 set\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e📋 Card Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eCard Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e #STRA-SSP01\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Super Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Season 5\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCondition: NOS.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hall of Fame Sports Memorabilia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48097217937640,"sku":"2025-TN-ST-STRASSP01","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/2718\/4037\/files\/2025-topps-stranger-things-stra-ssp01-short-print-season-5-cover-art-card-vintage-960.webp?v=1772721734"},{"product_id":"2025-topps-now-stranger-things-stra-ssp05-short-print-season-5-cover-art-card","title":"2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SSP05 Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card","description":"\u003ch2\u003e🎬 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SSP05 Super Short Print — Season 5 Cover Art Card\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Stranger Things SSP subset from 2025 Topps Now is not a standard insert set. It is a deliberate scarcity structure built into a licensed product that Topps created to document the final chapter of one of the defining entertainment properties of the Netflix era — and the SSP designation at its core is a print-run reality, not a marketing category. SSP05 is the fifth card in that subset: one of a handful of Super Short Prints embedded in the Season 5 Topps Now release at a frequency so low that collectors who opened packs of the product could not reasonably expect to pull one. The cards that exist in the secondary market arrived there because someone pulled one and sold it — and the supply available from that pipeline, by structural design, is far more limited than any numbered parallel with a stated print run, because the SSP production figure was not announced. What is known is that the SSP subset exists, that SSP05 is among them, and that the market for this card has reflected the actual scarcity that super short prints represent in collector-focused licensed releases. At $384.99, SSP05 commands a premium over the base SSP01, reflecting exactly the kind of market differentiation that the subset structure creates when individual cards within the SSP checklist generate different levels of collector demand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SSP05 Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card.

The SSP01 and the SSP05 are different cards — different images, different visual presentations, different positions within the subset — and the market has priced them differently accordingly. The SSP05 at $384.99 represents the market's assessment of the demand differential between the two pieces, a pricing structure that reflects genuine collector behavior rather than arbitrary distinction. For SSP set completionists and Stranger Things card collectors building across the full Season 5 Topps Now release, the SSP05 is the piece that rounds out the high-rarity tier of the set at the end of the numbered SSP checklist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🎥 Stranger Things Season 5: The Final Chapter on Cardboard\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeason 5 of Stranger Things arrived with the weight of nine years of narrative investment from a fanbase that had watched the series from its debut in 2016 through its expansion into one of the most culturally embedded streaming properties of the decade. The final season closed the arc of Hawkins, Indiana — the dimensional mythology, the recurring ensemble of characters who had grown up on screen alongside the audience, and the supernatural threat that the series had built its tension around since the first episode. Topps Now documented that final season with an officially licensed release that put the Cover Art and key imagery from Season 5 on cardboard for the last time. The SSP subset represents the most scarce tier of that documentation — and the SSP05 Cover Art card is one of the pieces that collectors completing the high-end Season 5 set target specifically because of where it sits in the SSP checklist and what it represents as the conclusion of the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🌟 The Premium Non-Sports Market and Scarcity-Driven Collectibles\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNon-sports trading cards built around major entertainment IP have generated serious collector market activity for as long as the card format has existed — and the premium tier of that market has always been defined by scarcity. Topps built an entire business on non-sports cards before its sports partnerships defined the brand; the serious collecting community that surrounds entertainment IP today is a continuation of that tradition at the streaming era's scale. Stranger Things at its peak reached audience figures that placed it among the most-watched properties in the history of the medium. The Season 5 Topps Now SSP subset exists at the intersection of that cultural moment and the authentic scarcity structure that makes a piece of cardboard difficult to find — which is precisely the combination that the serious non-sports collector market responds to and that the pricing on SSP05 reflects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🎬 Stranger Things SSP set completionists targeting all five cards in the super short print subset\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Netflix era entertainment collectors documenting the series at its highest-scarcity card tier\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Pop culture SSP specialists who build collections around proven short print structures\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Non-sports card collectors who approach entertainment IP with the same rigor as sports sets\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Season 5 Topps Now Stranger Things set builders closing the SSP checklist\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e📋 Card Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eCard Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e #STRA-SSP05\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Super Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Season 5 SSP Subset — Card 5 of 5\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCondition: NOS.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hall of Fame Sports Memorabilia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48097218101480,"sku":"2025-TN-ST-STRASSP05","price":384.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/2718\/4037\/files\/2025-topps-stranger-things-stra-ssp05-short-print-season-5-cover-art-card-vintage-471.webp?v=1772722123"},{"product_id":"2025-topps-now-stranger-things-stra-sp01-short-print-season-5-cover-art-card","title":"2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SP01 Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card","description":"\u003ch2\u003e🎬 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SP01 Short Print — Season 5 Cover Art Card\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe trading card hobby has a specific vocabulary for scarcity — and within that vocabulary, the Short Print occupies a meaningful tier. Not the extreme rarity of the Super Short Print, where production figures are deliberately kept from the market and the number of copies that exist can only be estimated from what surfaces in the secondary market over time. The Short Print is the tier below that: scarcer than the base card by design, inserted at a reduced frequency in the production run, present in the market but not abundant, findable for the collector who seeks it but not so common that the seeking feels trivial. The 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SP01 Short Print Season 5 Cover Art card occupies that tier in the official licensed card documentation of Stranger Things Season 5 — the final chapter of the Netflix series that arrived in 2025 carrying nine years of narrative investment from one of the most dedicated fandoms in the history of streaming television.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA-SP01 Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card.

The Short Print sits at the top of the unnumbered scarcity tier — a card that was printed at a lower frequency than the base without a serial number stamped on it to document exactly how many exist. For collectors, that ambiguity is part of the appeal: the SP's population in the market is determined entirely by supply dynamics over time, not by a declared print run, making the actual rarity of any individual SP01 a function of what the market surfaces rather than what the manufacturer declared. The #STRA-SP01 is the first card in the SP subset of the Season 5 Topps Now Stranger Things release, making it the natural entry point for collectors building across the SP tier of the set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🎥 Season 5 and the Licensed Legacy of Stranger Things\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStranger Things launched on Netflix in 2016 as a supernatural thriller set in the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana in the 1980s — a series whose production design, ensemble casting, and tonal balance between horror and nostalgia created an audience that grew with the show through four seasons before the fifth and final chapter closed the mythology in 2025. Topps Now documented that final season through an officially licensed series that placed the Season 5 cover art on cardboard as a permanent artifact of the conclusion. The SP subset within that release captures the same art in a format that was deliberately produced at lower frequency — making the SP01 a scarce artifact of the final season's official visual identity from a property that built one of the streaming era's largest and most active fandoms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🌟 The Non-Sports Market and Entertainment IP Scarcity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNon-sports trading cards have operated alongside the sports card market since the earliest years of the hobby. The collecting community that surrounds licensed entertainment properties like Stranger Things treats scarcity with the same rigor as the sports card collector who builds around numbered parallels and limited print runs — because the dynamics are identical. A card that exists in lower quantities than the base commands premium pricing regardless of whether the content is athletic or entertainment in nature. The SP01 from the Season 5 Topps Now Stranger Things release is a licensed, authenticated, officially produced short print from the final season of a property that sat at the top of Netflix's most-watched charts for years. That combination of cultural significance, licensed authenticity, and deliberate production scarcity is exactly what the non-sports market responds to and values over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🎬 Stranger Things fans who build card collections across the full licensed card catalog of the series\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Short print specialists who target SP-tier cards within entertainment releases\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Non-sports collectors who approach entertainment IP with the scarcity-first mindset of the sports card community\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Season 5 Topps Now Stranger Things set builders completing the SP subset tier\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Netflix era pop culture collectors documenting streaming television's defining properties at the card level\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e📋 Card Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eCard Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e #STRA-SP01\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Short Print Season 5 Cover Art Card\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Season 5 SP Subset\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCondition: NOS.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hall of Fame Sports Memorabilia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48097218134248,"sku":"2025-TN-ST-STRASP01","price":62.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/2718\/4037\/files\/2025-topps-stranger-things-stra-sp01-short-print-season-5-cover-art-card-vintage-314.webp?v=1772721821"},{"product_id":"2025-topps-now-stranger-things-stra-gold-50-season-5-cover-art-card","title":"2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA Gold \/50 Season 5 Cover Art Card","description":"\u003ch2\u003e🎬 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA Gold \/50 — Season 5 Cover Art Card\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe numbered parallel is the mechanism by which the trading card market creates definitive, documentable scarcity — not the ambiguous scarcity of the short print, where production figures are withheld and the real number of copies can only be estimated from market activity over time, but the fixed, stamped, permanently documented scarcity of a card whose serial number tells every holder exactly how many copies were produced and exactly where their card sits within that total. The 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA Gold parallel, numbered to just 50 copies, is that mechanism applied to the Season 5 Cover Art card — the official licensed visual documentation of the final chapter of Stranger Things, produced by Topps in the premium Gold parallel format that the non-sports card market has recognized as the threshold between widely available and genuinely hard to find. Fifty copies of this Gold parallel exist across the entire collector base for Stranger Things card product. The serial number on each card documents that fixed reality permanently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things #STRA Gold \/50 Season 5 Cover Art Card.

The parallel structure within Topps Now is different: the Gold parallel is a fixed production format numbered to \/50 regardless of what the base card's print run turns out to be. For Stranger Things Season 5, a property that generated significant collector demand at every tier of the licensed card market, the \/50 Gold parallel represents the most limited numbered format available outside the \/10 and 1\/1 tiers — the 50 collectors who hold this card hold one of exactly 50 copies of the Gold parallel of a card that documents the final chapter of one of Netflix's defining original series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🎥 The Gold Parallel as the Premium Tier of the Base Card\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithin the Topps Now parallel structure, the Gold \/50 occupies the apex of the numbered tier that collectors who build the full Stranger Things Season 5 parallel rainbow are targeting. Below \/50 exist the \/10 and the 1\/1, which surface in the market less frequently and command prices beyond what most collectors building rainbow sets are willing to commit on a single card. At \/50, the Gold parallel is the document that most serious Stranger Things card collectors identify as the highest-tier acquisition they are building toward when they target the Season 5 numbered parallel checklist. The visual presentation of the Gold finish against the Season 5 Cover Art distinguishes it immediately and permanently from the base card and from every other parallel in the Topps Now color spectrum for this release.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e🌟 Stranger Things Season 5 and the Close of the Netflix Era\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeason 5 of Stranger Things arrived in 2025 carrying the accumulated weight of nine years of storytelling — four prior seasons that had built the mythology of Hawkins, Indiana and the Upside Down into one of the most elaborately constructed fictional worlds in streaming television history. The final season closed that mythology, giving the ensemble cast and the audience who had followed them from childhood through adulthood a conclusion that the series had been building toward since the first episode. Topps Now's licensed Season 5 release documents that conclusion in the most collectible formats available: base cards, parallels, short prints, super short prints, and the numbered Gold \/50 that represents the premium entry point into the documented, serial-numbered tier of this release.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🎬 Stranger Things parallel rainbow builders targeting the Gold \/50 as the numbered tier anchor\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Non-sports numbered parallel collectors who build around licensed entertainment releases\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Netflix era pop culture collectors documenting the streaming era's defining properties\u003cbr\u003e🎬 Season 5 Topps Now Stranger Things set builders completing the parallel spectrum\u003cbr\u003e🎬 \/50 and under numbered card collectors targeting ultra-rare entertainment card parallels\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e📋 Card Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025 Topps Now Stranger Things\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eCard Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e #STRA\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eParallel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003ePrint Run:\u003c\/strong\u003e Numbered to 50 (#\/50)\u003cbr\u003e🔹 \u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Season 5 Cover Art\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCondition: NOS.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hall of Fame Sports Memorabilia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48097218199784,"sku":"2025-TN-ST-STRA-GOLD","price":574.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/2718\/4037\/files\/2025-topps-stranger-things-stra-gold-50-season-5-cover-art-card-vintage-treasures-779.webp?v=1772722069"}],"url":"https:\/\/vintageantiquesgifts.com\/collections\/stranger-things.oembed","provider":"Vintage and Antique Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
