Five Worst Baseball Card Products EVER 

Agree with the list. But you simply can’t disparage Fleer Pro Vision. 91 Fleer was terrible. But Pro Vision was born out of that set and remains one of my favorite subsets of all time!

As a kid I loved the yellow cards in Fleer 91'. I hold them in high regard via nostalgic feelings, but I get why they are on this list.

This was once a hobby and a really fun hobby at that...

Worst baseball card product? 1988 Donruss! Case closed.

I liked the 91 fleer inserts and this makes me want to buy a set of them. lol

91 score was even worse

I'll add the 1990 Fleer & ALL the white boarder & waist to head shoots of the Topps cards they put out , now ! Sorry I'LL stay in the vintage cards for now on .I too just hate the silver stickers they had them sign & then put that onto the cards !

I like '91 Fleer. :) How about the recent Triple Play by Panini (I think 2013)? Those are terrible.

Honestly any sort of sportflics just makes me gag

The bat barrels alone should keep Unique off the list

I liked the design of 1991 Fleer. The yellow card border stood out and looked very unique and looked better than other 1991 baseball card sets released in the same year (except 1991 Leaf). Unfortunately, 1991 didn't bring any great valuable rookie cards. The worst 1998 card design had to be 1991 Donruss series 1 and 2.

I always like the way 91 fleer looked. Some of my favorite wrestling cards have yellow boards.

1991 Donruss was and is the worst. It was an ugly two part set that came first in series 1 blue and then series 2 green cards with a combined set of about 800 cards that were all overproduced garbage. You had to open endless packs just to make a set from both series that had no good rookies. Luis Gonzalez who was the most expensive card in the set which even at the time was worth about 50 cents which was the price of a single pack at the time. The fact that the Donruss Elite series started this year made it worse because you had to open endless junk to try to get one of those super rare elite cards that made it the closest thing to gambling in the card collecting industry, since all the base cards were practically throw aways.

Wow! You are taking me back with this one!

1991 Fleer is actually outstanding for autographs.

I love the look of the base Fleer 1991 way more than the Fleer 1992 .

91 Donruss could’ve made this list

1991 Fleer is awesome.

1992 Score...worth less now than the paper it was printed on.

Topps tek was weird, 81 differents designs for each card

The inserts in 91 fleer did kick ass but base set was really shit in content and design...

88 fleer,87 topps 96 upper deck,,,best looking cards in that span.

I agree full heartedly that the moments and milestones set is ridiculous to figure out and documentary is dumb because the front photo has nothing to do with the moment

I really liked 91 Fleer, back then. How can 80s Donruss not be on the list?! They were the worst

I LOVE THE YELLOW ONE. I NEVER SEE IT ANYWHERE. NO COLLECTOR I KNOW HAS THAT. I KNOW SO MANY COLLECTORS!!

I just came across your page and this video. Awesome work, I guess I overlooked and did not notice the Team names missing on 2012 Upper Deck. I do remember those crappy autographs though and thought What is this? when I saw them. I just hit subscribe to get you 1 closer to 600. I hope you continue to grow your channel and look forward to watching more of your future content and some of your older videos. Thanks for posting this and Happy Collecting!

Triple play? Disgusting

You guys know that if you purchase a license for a stock photo, you don’t need to credit them in each slide, right?

I like that bonds fleer with theghost

I guess I was that one weird kid growing up who found the 08 upper deck documentary cool lol

Anything score should be on this list

Well, there are obviously terrible years for rookies but these are the worst products from every brand in my opinion when you factor both rookie class, set quality, design and production run. Also, I'm going to give my hockey .02 cents as well, I'd do football and basketball too but I'm not too comfortable listing football or basketball, I mean I have ideas but - not only that but these days I really only collect hockey and a little baseball but I grew up collecting baseball and I would consider myself an expert in baseball pre-1995 or so (when I left the hobby, but I did return 20 years later. lol) I'll give an honorable mention for "vintage" too. Baseball 5. 1992 Upper Deck? 4. 1986 Topps 3. 1991 Fleer 2. 1988 Donruss 1. 1991 Score HM: 1981 Donruss Hockey 5. 1992-93 Upper Deck 4. 1991-92 Bowman 3. 1991-92 Score 2. 1991-92 Topps 1. 1990-91 Pro Set HM: 1981-82 Topps There's just so much junk wax to choose from in both hockey and baseball. Keep in mind the "junk wax era" in hockey didn't begin until 1990-91 (with Pro Set) but in baseball I'd say the beginning was 1986, tho both 86 Donruss and Fleer are ok sets, Topps is obviously the least desirable, but bar none 1991 Score is hands down the worst set in the history of baseball, and 1990-91 Pro Set takes that honor in hockey - I mean both are just terrible sets, and Pro Set may be the worst set in the history of the hobby as far as a set considering the set is riddled with errors and errors of errors and corrected errors that are errors - 1990-91 Pro Set hockey is a error collectors wet dream - I mean it really is an error paradox. I mean the rookie class wasn't too bad and Pro Set series 2 is actually kinda loaded and they did a far better job as far as the errors are concerned it's still a ridiculous set despite having rookies of many Hall of Famers such as Modano, Belfour, Jagr, Federov, Mogilny, Sundin and borderline guys like Roenick and Curtis Joseph just to name a few. So from a rookie perspective it's a fantastic set but outside of that it's junk and if the rookie class wasn't as good as it was - it be a far more difficult product to move than it is now, tho error collectors really do enjoy it and there are quite a few rare error cards that are desirable among collectors. Of course my honorable mention as far as vintage was 81-82 Topps and I think few would debate that, now don't confuse the Topps set with the OPC set because the 81-82 OPC set is loaded with Hall of Fame rookies and it has a desirability factor x 500 against it's Topps "parallel"... Now are there HOF rookies in the Topps set? yes, Denis Savard, Peter Stastny and Dino Ciccirelli but the OPC set has those and more, and even some non-HOF'ers that are still very desirable, I mean I would say 81-82 OPC has to be up there with the best sets of the 80's when you factor rookies, design, production and all that jazz.. And of course in baseball it's easily 1991 Score and it doesn't matter which series it is - it really is just a terrible and fugly set and the only decent rookie is the Chipper Jones. And I highly doubt I'll get much debate among baseball fans with this one so I'll move on to the honorable mention which is obviously 1981 Donruss, and again I don't think I will get much debate here - I mean the 81 rookie class wasn't that great at all, I mean I think the only Hall of Famer is Tim Raines, but other than that it's bad and I think you can still find boxes of it today for less than $100 bucks, which isn't bad for a 40-year old product but good luck getting that $100 bucks out of it - I mean that's the price of admission just to have a fun evening breaking some vintage, just to say you did. lol And look, both Topps and Fleer were no better but they're at least slightly more desirable than the Donruss.

How about the year that Fleer used all those blurry photos.

The 1987 Topps baseball cards set is the best ever.

Also.. nominate this for Hockey: 15/16 Upper Deck Contours.. for a die cut set, I love die cuts, it was pretty bland.. also keep in mind, upper deck was trying to copy crown royale here with 4 packs per box and a hit per pack.. contours was just horrid with a price of 200-250 while crown was usually sold 80-125.. now you can find contours for 50 or less (it's also your cheapest shot at a Connor McDavid rookie auto)..

91 Donruss horrible

1988 Donruss baseball really SUCKED.

I am still a 42 year old kid.1985-1986 Fleers were tough to find at our Deli.After that they all got crazy🏟

Love the 91 Fleer Yellow cards and collected them all. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

91 Fleer was an amazing set! ...Long Live The Yellow Master!

Haha! 91 fleer Pro visions are the best.

1991 fleer are badass. One of my favorites.

I have no problem with Topps Unique. I don't rip packs because they're too expensive and I'm a team/player collector, I don't need "hits" or a stack of cards I don't care about. I've purchased some Unique cards and I think they look nice.

I'll nominate a recent release, 2018 Topps Archives Snapshots. It's a small set, not worth collecting and they didn't number the cards they were lettered. It doesn't include Soto. I don't know how you produce a set this late in the year that doesn't include Soto and the autograph subjects aren't to good but all that together is not the worst of it, the cards have massive amounts of chipping on the back.

88 Donruss needs to be on this list

Still open 91 Score packs hoping to get a shirtless Canseco Dream Team card. Mmmmmmm. Heavenly!

I know who owns that Babe Ruth SP #rd 5/13 Burbank Sports Cards has the complete set and that Ruth is one of them. Asking price on the set, $850K now if I had that kind of money I would buy it, but how many of you would?

I like the early 1990s cards. They are just not worth much

88 Donruss was one of the worst.Mass produced and totally worthless.There was a time that the Greg Jeffries Rookie was supposed to be one of the best rookie cards of the 80's.That was a total scam to drive up the price of a guy who proved nothing up to that point.

Nicely done

Hahaha twins fan? Lots of references I’m a twins fan too

I like the 91 Fleer.

I got 1 vote for 89 fleer.

I loved Fleer but that 91 fleer set was horrid! Those inserts were the only reason to buy those cards though.. I miss fleer cause they made things affordable.. what I like is a set that is 100-200 cards base and 4-5 different insert sets..no parallels cause parallels are overrated.. just go back to basics.. I also like 1 per pack rookies, not 2-8 rookies per pack..

91' and 92' were the ugliest and biggest crap cards

I love these products except the first. You guys are crazy.

90 donruss isnt on this list ! ? How ? I put 91 Fleer and 90 Don on same level lol

1982 fleer, 2004 upper deck power up any more recent donruss with no logos!!

1991 Fleer just in my opinion wasn't that bad. Most people only judge the front of a card, which I'll admit, was pretty bad. But the backs of the 1991 Fleer cards weren't that bad. Easy to read font and stats which an additional photo on the back, aka like Score.

1991 Fleer is in fact a rather boring set :(

13,000 card set ouch!

Documentary and Moments and Milestones were absolutely horrid Way too many cards

1991 classic were worst ever. They would chip if you looked at the hard.

I like the 91 fleer. Too bad so over produced

You forgot triple play

Hola yo tengo como unas 4500 cartas de pelota y quiero saber si tengo carta de valor y como se lo hago saber

Actually 1991 Fleer are cool, the ugliest set must be the 1991 Donruss.

I kind of like 1991 fleer

Donruss Triple Play with made up relics and unrecognizable player art.

1986 topps baseball is the worse.

1989 topps

1988 donruss was the worst set of all time 1988 Topps terrible

Wonder if the worst now....will be better than all that new crap in the future.....

I liked upper decks documentary.

I could care less what it looks like... all I give a crap about is the quality! And Fleer, imo, is by far the gold standard. 91 Fleer dominates the GARBAGE put out by Donruss/Leaf, & some Score editions during late 80's early 90's...88-89 total chit for instance!

And.... Topps is doing this again this year...

1991 Donruss are cartoonish.

Before this list YES 91 FLEER other 4 as far as design no particular order 1988 score 😝 1988 topps 1991 topps 1990 donruss

Any dunruss card from 80s to 90s

I can't stand presspass usually not worth crap and look terrible

Actually I like 91 fleer for autograph (in blue only!

I like 91 fleer lol but then again I like super ugly Chihuahua dogs to......

yes you missed a lot. The 1987 to 1991 Topps way over produced.

1991 fleer is the worst ever. I saw that on this video listing picture and got sick. There were so many of them nd were just ugly! I liked the 1990 score

Lol agreed!!!!!

Twins fan?

SUBSCRIBED!!!!!!!

Parallels suck

1991 was just a really bad year in baseball cards. No good rookies, no amazing players, nothing. The 1991 fleer pro visions were awesome tho.

Everyone of those designers should be FIRED!! They are aweful. When baseball card manufacturer companies change there card stock in 1991 and stop putting gum in the wax packs..... the rest is history.

That 91 Fleer set was total garbage

hated those yellow fleer cards. They were so ugly.

1994 is about the only year of Fleer that I think looks sharp. I my opinion fleer 1995 is the worst baseball card base set design ever, and '88, '89, '91, '92, '93 are all also pretty bad. Overall Donruss is nothing special. I think 1985 was okay and '87 decent. 1990 sucked (so much red). I think it was lazy of Donruss to use the same design for the back of the cards from 1985 to 1991. I think Topps was better overall. Some years were poor like 1987 and 1990. Some years weren't necessarily bad, just plain (like 1988). But I'll take the plain Topps '88s over the ugly Fleer '88s. My favorite Topps years are 1979 and 1976. Upper deck was good overall. Of the early white boarder years ('89-'93) I like '92 the best. 1993 SP is one of my favorite sets of the era. Score is mostly crap. Pacific is all crap. I never liked Pinnacle. Bowman is okay here and there. The oversized '89s are dumb. I like Topps Stadium Club. The designs were usually pretty good, and the print quality was outstanding. The photos ranged from awesome to awful (Example, compare the '92 Eckersley to the Maddux).

1971 topps due to black border

Triple play

1991 Leaf was total garbage

89 topps is the worst

Junk wax forever
