Merlin Publishing Limited, commonly known as Merlin was a British publishing firm who released a variety of sticker collections during the late 1980s and 1990s most notably releasing football stickers in particularly for the Premier Leaque and Serie A.  Merlin was bought out by Topps in 1995. They were absorbed into the company, being renamed Topps Europe Limited, although the name Merlin would continued as a brand under the Topps name initially until 2008. In 2014 the Merlin brand returned to the Premier League sticker collections until Panini was awarded the contract in 2019.
