    I know this was probably a lot of work to collect these but this should be a yearly tradition on your birthday.

      There is a seller on Ebay offering this up. It only went to 2019 though. Maybe Jabs threw in the 2020 pack. I bought it myself for $170. The early wax was all very suspect. 81 or 82 pack had the gum glued. Also had 2 packs bricked so bad I threw them away. Didn't get my money back but had enough fun I've considered buying another.

    Very nice. Between 1993 and 1994 is obviously when the classic pack design began to change. I began collecting in 1988, took a bunch of years off, started again heavily the last few years, especially after viewing these (and others') videos. Thank you.

    Thanks that was pretty educational. I learned about cards and myself. I had no idea what year I stopped collecting cards but by making out what year I stopped recognizing the card design I learn that it was 1994 when I turned 18 years and on the strike year that I stopped collecting cards. I had no idea that the strike year made me soo bitter. It was also educational by showing me what I missed.
    Can you do this again for other companies such as Donruss,Upper Deck. I remember that Topps weren't though of highly so maybe I kept collecting other companies.

  • @zackphy
    @zackphy 4 года назад

    I just got back into the hobby and this video just made me realize I may be sitting on some good cards. Me and my friend jumped back into the hobby in early 2012 and were buying everything we could get our hands on b4 stopping again a year or so later. That means I've got like 2 of those cardboard card holder boxes full of 2011 Topps update in my closet. Guess that means I gotta go dig them out and look for Trout cards lol.

    Funny thing Erik, you're born 1 year (81) before I was and one day (28) after I was. Also we both like collecting baseball cards. My favorite year 1996, I'll never forget my dad (Who is 73) we bought packs together and he pulled a Mickey Mantle reprint. He was so happy. I always get a pack of Topps baseball to share that connection. My Dad isn't doing well so if people could lift him in up in prayer, it would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to lose him yet.

    When I was a kid I had about 50 Rickey Henderson rookie cards. Sadly, they "disappeared" when I joined the military. When I pulled those cards he was just a "speedster" starting out so I thought nothing except, "Dang, why do I have 50 of this guy?"
    Back then I sorted my loose cards by year, then team. Until the ranks opened up I would get the Topps box set at the end of the year(near Christmas)and that was all you needed to say you had them all in your collection. But, it must have been the bubble gum that drew me to go purchase loose packs during the week, and the wall flipping, we can't forget the wall flipping. I never did the bike spokes but some of my friends did because they made better "flips" if they had bends or tears in the cards...lol
    I miss seeing shows like this, memory lane type of deal, thank-you.❤️‍🔥🙏😻👑💖

    @MrHW1968 4 года назад +1

    Good video. Nice to have for reference because it’s hard to remember what every year looks like. I prefer the designs from the 1980s because that’s when I started to collect. Back then Don Mattingly was the guy.

    I was a Topps guy until I think it was 1992. then the shiny, wet, looking Fleer Ultra took over. Man, great memories buying those packs back in the day. Always loved the 2003 Topps cards too. It's a shame they stick together. Sometimes I think about buying some of those late 80's early 90's topps...just worried about repacks.

    This is awesome. I've been working for a while on a book that ranks every Topps flagship base set from worst to best and thought it would be cool to rip a pack for every set that I possibly could-- basically this same time frame, maybe a little ways back into the 70s.
