Coming Soon: 1987 & 1992 Topps Baseball


Won another auction on eBay and I have a rack pack of '87 and '92 Topps on the way. I got this for $4.94 delivered and the '87 has a Bo Jackson RC showing so I'm feeling pretty strong mojo. I will probably have this sometime after Xmas so stay tuned.

Mail Day: 12/10/08

I received an awesome package today from Daniel in New York state. I got over 300(!) commons I needed for '88 and '92 Fleer. Without a doubt my favorite of the bunch is this card right here.

I had no idea this card existed. Fleer really jumped the gun on this one as Jeff King wouldn't have another card until 1990 as he didn't make his ML debut until 1989. Jeff King was a number one draft pick by the Pirates in 1986. They had selected Barry Bonds number one in 1985 so they had pretty high hopes for King as well. After several false starts he finally showed signs of becoming a run producer in 1993 and then after a few big years in Pittsburgh he was traded to the Royals where he had a few more big years before calling it quits for his real love, hunting and fishing. I can't get over how young Kinger looks on this '88 Fleer card as I always remember the full beard he had as a big leaguer.
Anyways, big thanks to Daniel! Let me know what you would like in return...

1992 Fleer Baseball

Here's the wax box of 1992 Fleer baseball I got. Although there's not much in the way of rookie cards in this edition, it's still a great looking set that was fun to open and I got some cool inserts. The collation left much to be desired however with only 61% different cards in the box as opposed to the impressive 79% different cards in the 88 Fleer box. Only the first three video breaks I made for this box worked but here you go.
