The DC Super Heroes sticker-card set was distributed by various brands of bread in 1978. Each specially marked loaf of bread contained one sticker-card.

The stickers measure approximately 2.25 x 3 inches, slightly smaller than a standard trading card. The collection was produced by Arnold Harris Associates Inc. in Cherry Hill, NJ. The Super Heroes Fun Book & Checklist is a ten-page activity brochure that was availably at participating retailers. The Fun Book has a copyright date of 1976.

The stickers are branded with logos from Langendorf, Sunbeam, or Taystee. Stickers without a bread logo were distributed by Schmidt's Blue Ribbon and various other brands in North America. The paper stickers are susceptible to staining from bread oil, humidity, and mold.
