My favorite years for card collecting were probably from the late '60s to the junk wax era.

These packs literally changed baseball card collecting. Huge deal

i enjoyed collecting in the 80's... used to mow lawns and would take my few dollars over to 7-11 or AMPM and get a slushee and a few packs for a quarter each... straight set collecting checking em off the checklist card with a pen... traded doubles with friends to collect all 700 cards... good 'ol days...

@marshallprice8503 4 года назад

What a weird day, I woke up today and decided to finally open my box of 1990 Series II Leaf cards that I purchased when I was a young man. I got half way thru the box and had 3 Frank Thomas, 3 Larry Walker and 4 Randy Johnsons. I stopped very happy with mu cards and then turned on the TV and watched you open this 89 Upper Deck. A good day all around. Thanks for what you do!!

@EBBE-uf2wp 4 года назад

This was my era collecting. I remember how Upper Deck cards stood apart from others by having that deep saturation in color. Just looked more expensive back in the day.

@thecman26 Год назад

Still the best in my opinion!

Trying to keep it short. Flee market 1991, I put a pack back my brother bought it. Griffey was in it. He needed some $$ for insurance I asked. Still got. Griffey 89 Upper Deck is the card

@jed21 4 года назад

Griffey has to be top 5 most iconic cards people chased in pack opening, especially in the junk wax era that card was so hard to get. And upperdeck packs were expensive back then. Love that card

@josephbruno8711 4 года назад

I'm fairly certain the 1989 boxes did not come factory sealed. At that time Upper Deck cards always ran in serial number order. Very easy to find the Griffey. All you had to do was open the top pack of each of the four stacks to know exactly where the card would be in the box. I did not know this for many years after 1989 - and after I opened almost 10 boxes, never pulling a Griffey card on my own.

@joeshaver1104 2 года назад

The Albert hall from this set got me into card collecting. I found it laying on the road. The shiny upper deck logo on the back made my 6/7 year old mind explode. Wanted more. From then on it was saving up my money to buy packs of cards at the local red food store.

I bought one pack back in I think 91 at a card shop for 5 bucks. Opened it and the first card I saw was the Griffey. The pack also had a nolan Ryan. I'll still to this day, choose junk era cards over new stuff anyday

i have recently pulled a Shohei auto from a big league box from wal mart ...these are pretty rare to be on cardboard 1 and also I cannot find anyone who has one..no number on card ect...topps certified..curious if you could point me in right direction. ty!!

I thought that "Rumor" of Top Left 3rd in was from the bottom. Also another "Rumor" I remember was a full pack of "The Kid" in certain cases. IDK if thats true, but my cousin and I purchased 4 boxes 2 High and 2 Low, from the High we pulled 1 KGJ and the Low we pulled 2, but it was in the same box we pulled the 2 and Guttered the other box.

@shawnoneal8646 4 года назад

6 would have been super awesome but one is better than none

@jimbrown5055 4 года назад

Those packs were searchable! Once the numerical order was figured you could know if Griffey was in the box. Each pack had two cards from each 100's...0-100,101-200,201-300 etc plus one unknown hundred. Those boxes had no shrink wrap from a fresh case....beware!!

@BS-md8zz 4 года назад

I opened Multiple cases back in 89. Here is a FACT. U can go to the middle (5th pack down) of any row, open it and check the card number of the rookie. If it’s card number #3 for example, 2 packs away will be Griffey. Either 2 packs up or 2 packs down. Hope this makes sense.

@WaveofCards 4 года назад

Exactly. Which is why with multiple Luis Medinas showing up, and only one Griffey, it's a fact this box was mapped and backfilled (they just missed the other Griffey).

@TheChoochooboy99 4 года назад

There were so many of these printed in 1989 that convenience stores carried them, not just baseball card stores. They were 99 cents per pack and could be found at 7-11, Circle K, QuikTrip, among many others. I had at least ten Griffey’s and four sets that I had built as a twelve year old kid. They are hardly scarce, but it is still the most iconic set of the 1980’s. Will I pay $300 for a box now, when they were half that just six months ago? No way!
