in England Topps didn't pick up the licence to do the cards (like they did in the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand). It went to FKS who made a sticker album and stickers. There were 2 different display boxes for these in the UK (can dig out images if any interest). This licence also extended to the Netherlands, Spain and France and Belgium. I've got both empty and full albums from all these and display boxes and wrappers from all but France/Belgium (again, if anyone has any examples to share/sell/trade do let me know).
Also UK and Spain printings had either light or grey backs - Spain in particular is noticeable as they were cards to be pasted rather than self-adhesive stickers and are very dark grey or white.
I've also added a picture of the Panini 1978 sticker wrappers - there were 4 different languages I think for the albums. 2 wrapper variations but I have never seen a display box(es) - anyone got an image of one??
