These packs literally changed baseball card collecting. Huge deal
I feel like the Smoltz RC deserves to be sleeved/set aside.
Ryan Deffley .. 👍🏽
You can buy the same card for a buck
Also Randy Johnson lol
Watching this 3 years later and dude doesn't even know the players, hope he gave up busting boxes 😂
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...

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!!
"watch your profanity" gets me rollin every time😁
Haha me too, that and the fake laugh to eye roll clip
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.
Still the best in my opinion!
8:39 🤗
Thanks
Love watching vintage box breaks. Thanks for doing this Phil. Glad you hit a Griffey.
I bought one pack for like $5 outside Fenway Park about 20 yrs ago and pulled the Griffey!
On yawkee or Lansdown st ?
I got mine at K-mart. When I was a kid.
Damn you got scammed hard for $5 a pack, guess it was worth it
@@joembells5449 I'm not sure what side it was on. I want to say yawkey way because i don't think it was behind the monster
@@naterthot69 na even back then the Griffey was like a $120 and a box was like $150 to $180. 36 packs × $5 is right in that range.
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
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'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.
I remember going to a card show in 1990 and pulling on of these cards in a pack. The whole show seemed to stop and come congratulate me. Was a highlight of my pack pulling career.😁
And today that mass produced card isn't worth a Starbucks coffee...congrats...
@@j.shearer1958this didn't age well
That’s awesome you found a Randy Ready, when I was a kid I was at a Calgary Cannons AAA game and Ready was playing for the Las Vegas Stars at the time, he cracked his bat and gave it to me at the end of the game while I was trying to get autographs. It meant a lot to me and I followed his career all the way to the end. I still have that bat and a number of signed cards of his.
My mom found a sealed set at a yard sale for $5. When I opened it the Griffey was flawless. Sending it out for grading expecting no less than a 9.
@John D 150-200
Love the vids Phil, I also love the fact a major league collects as well. Keep the content flowing brother
@ 13:55 I literally fell off the toilet! Yes my past time is watching Phils Pulls while pooping.
I have my one and only that I pulled back in 89. Griffey got me into collecting and I have over a thousand unique Jr’s in my PC. Now I’ve got my son into collecting. Thanks for the trip down memory lane
I was 11 years old and worked in a baseball card shop in Maine when this came out. Brings back memories. Complete 5 tool player
I miss the days when you didn't have to look for a number on a card to determine if it had any value
Yea let’s just go back to the days when cards had less value than scrap cardboard.
@@ryanschaff123 Those cards came in handy for scooping up poop from my dog...cheaper than a paper plate
Mark Mcguire rookie is on the top cards of all time. I remember when they used to sell his rookie and hobby boxes on home shopping network
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
You should have put the Smoltz to the good card pile! After all he is a hall of famer! Fun video your editor is top notch!! True story one day i went into my LCS during Covid-19 March i think and i opened a couple packs of Opening Day hit a Gavin Lux auto! Then he had some packs of 89 Upperdeck High Number and i hit the Griffey Jr. in the second pack!
I love love love your build up music to when you pull a big hit.... Gets me pumped...
Favorite collecting year...has to be the 1st one...1987. Wood borders on the Topps, cool blue Fleer, and the Donruss with the baseballs on the borders. Mattingly, Bonds, Maddux, McGwire...classic players.
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!!
It's hard to get a good Griffey in a factory set because he's the first in the set and gets banged up alot more than the other cards in the set
Back in the day I paid $10 per box for 92 upper deck and I got 12 of em! Did pull a Ted Williams auto! That was a fun weekend opening packs!
I shoveled snow and delivered a ton of newspapers for those packs.I still got my original Junior but it's kinda yellow.Another cool one.Rock On🤗
That was the most excitement I ever seen from you. Awesome pull!
great psych-out at the end....hahaha
I remember buying a few packs from the local shop when it first came out and I pulled 2 and was offered $100 for one on the spot. As a 14 year old kid that was huge back then
Much better story than myself as a kid pulling that Griffey in my first pack of Upper Deck at my LCS....and immediately trading it to the shop for a complete set of '87 Fleer mini. 😩
Splifftone ouch man.
Did you take the money?
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!
Must be nice, here in Kansas they were only at card shops and were $2 a pack!
Lol Pete Incavilia. When I was a kid at Tiger games I used to yell “Stinky Inky!” at him.
Great time watching you open these up. I woulda sleeved the Alomar jr rookie and the Smoltz rookie as well. That's just me though. You should go on a Griffey jr rookie card chase. 89 fleer... score traded..topps traded..bowman..just to see if you could hunt them all down bro. Thanks for sharing.
1 Jr. and 2 Randy Johnsons! Good box. Like watching the high end stuff opened. 1 card per box. Also like the topps 70s and early mid 80s. Thanks, and great job on the vids!
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.
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).
This was the first pack that was sealed that it was hard to repack the cards. Also the guarantee of no doubles in a pack. Yet I did get a pack from my LCS that did.
I remember back n 89 when I pulled the Griffey out of 2nd pack I bought. I was 10-11 yrs old . He was and still his my favorite ball player
Nobody:
Phil when he says donut: 🥐
Love your channel your channel and watch every single video. My 1st thought when the 1st box was a 1/1 of your favorite player was that Karma is about to serve such a all around good dude a 🔥 case and sure enough it did just that.. Congrats bro on awesome case of 2020 Cleary Authentic. 😃💯
Nice Griffey Jr rookie and love the Smoltz and Johnson rookies.
Wowwwww you are pulling fire 🔥 🔥🔥 keep the great content coming
Always love the comedy cutaways
Well u got one! That’s good. Thought you’d score at least 2. Nice video!
Favourite year collecting...1986. First year collecting cards. Just moved to the US after living in France & the UK. I had no clue about anything baseball, but collecting helped me understand the sport. Although while I love baseball as a sport, I love cricket more as a bat and ball sport.
I was laughing the whole time we were trying to do the arithmetic from 1949 to 1989
What about the John Smoltz rookie?
I really enjoyed collecting the 1987 Fleer set. I am currently working on a 1964 Topps set in PSA 8.
With all the clips, I can't believe there's not a "They call me Joseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" for Jose Canseco
I opened a box of 89 UD 5 years ago. I hit the exact same as you did. Two Johnson’s and one Griffey.
Phil there is a book out there from 1994 called Card Sharks. It tells how the President of Upper Deck Richard McWilliam saw how valuable the Griffey Rookie card was and went back to the presses to make 65,000 more cases. I think you would like reading about that.
Man I remember when I was a kid opening these boxes and Griffey was always hard to pull
Nice troll at the end there! Lmao, Gained a sub.
I didn't know this was Phil Hughes for a long time..I remember him playing on the Yankees back in the day
Seriously? I remember that name!
The Fake Out Music is the best 😄😄
Nice! Bummer on the centering.
Doesn't put the smoltz in the good pile :(
Hahahahahaha awesome Scarface clip
I like how excited you were to hit that.
I read somewhere that PSA heavily weighs how the hologram on the back looks.
I heard that 2... If it's centered or not.. fricken psa
If you were collecting when this card was released or even started shortly after (2 to 5yrs) this really was the most iconic card.... It dominated want lists back in the early 90s....
It seemed like it was on the Beckett Hot List for years.
When I saw you hit the Sandy Alomar Jr, I figured the other Jr. was coming soon.
Can someone tell me why card company’s put some cards upside down and backwards?
I like seeing older stuff opened. Would be cool to see some more basketball besides 19-20.
Ethan's Elvis Covers & More told me to check you and and thought I would stop by and pay you a visit.
Didnt want to put aside the John Smoltz rookie?
Congrats Phil!
Bob Horner and his “ideal form” once hit 4 hrs in one game.
And he had a much better career then Phil
Jason McGaughy (in regards to taking bad about Phil) We don’t do that here.
If he deserves it we do. Pack weighing cheater. I guess if you make 80 million dollars for being a mediocre pitcher then you don't care about cheating honest collectors.
Top right stack,second pack from the bottom always had fire pulls when I was a kid. That’s always what I reached for when I opened boxes or bought packs.
The McGwire was a very cool card as well.
Something to consider, when you open boxes with many packs and cards like this, why not open them all up real fast and stack the cards in piles. That will make the scanning of the cards for fluid and faster. Just a thought. Keep on having fun.
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 love the channel it pulled me back into the game
I have never seen the 89 upperdeck Dale Murphy reverse negative pulled or talked about
I remember every Griffey I pulled (3), it had Phil Stephenson in the pack I think
17:22 Wow man. You passed through that Mike Gallego card and did NOT check to see if it was the reverse negative error, lol !!!!
Nice box! 1 Jr and 2 Units! 👍🏻
Nice rip ,you mentioned Bruce Benedict his Father was my highschool baseball coach keep up the great videos
My favorite years for card collecting were probably from the late '60s to the junk wax era.
editing gets better every video
The look at this dude had me dying
Congrats on the griffey
Favorite years collecting: 90’s and now
J V mine too the market has rebounded tremendously and all these players like giannis and luka etc are making that happen
I gotta say Phil... you take really good care of your hands. 😎
Glad to see u get that low # ud and star cards plus the star rc
congrats on the pull. bummer on the centering.
Phil, if you could pitch to any batter throughout the history of baseball , who would it be?
The Bastard Probably Miggy
As a former Bronx Bomber himself, I hope he'd answer Ruth, Mantle, or Joe D.
He doesn't answer questions apparently.
And whoever it was they would take him deep.
Always a cool card to hunt for!!
I bought a box of these, all the cards were in perfect condition except for the Griffey. It was near perfect except for the foil UD logo on the back of the card.
Awesome video
No one EVER pulled 10-15 Junior out of a box. I've seen hundreds of these box opened, most I ever saw was 4 😂
I wonder why you put the John Smoltz He's a Hall of Famer's rookie card puzzling
Judy Ginquitti ... thinking the same 🥺
This is a nice set
Love it and just started the vid
You should do a Kobe rookie card search or just open up some 90”s nba lots of future hall of famers to get like Kevin garnet Kobe inversion tim duncen just an idea I love the vids 💪🏿
jesse davis speaking of Kobe after he passed away I remembered I have a grade 10 purple signature skybox rookie that’s now valued at $1,200 on eBay
Have him bust 1996-97 Topps Chrome BOX
Or 03-04 Topps Chrome.
Brian Matthews ... add me on Instagram CardboardInvestMint I wanna see that Kobe
Bro, Phil defuzzing the corners gave me a panic attack 😂😂😂😂
ME TOO!!!
Basically that first pack you pulled had the Luis Medina, card #2 I believe. Griffey is #1. So it’s right next to the Griffey on the print sheet. If you had a Griffey in the box, it really looks like it would be there or very close by.
That Griffey pull might have been the most excited Phil has ever been for pulling a card
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.
