Have one. Thanks.
I'll take a 1968 Mets Rookies card if you have a spare. Only one I need to complete the set and the blank space in the binder irritates me.

You probably have about 5 of these already: Orel jokes aside, I have an attic full of late 80's cards I'd probably give away. 1985-90. Last time I looked, a complete 1987 Topps set was on eBay, asking $8.00 and getting no takers. Boy, did I get raped by the Baseball Card Boom. I think I have about 20 Barry Bonds rookie cards. I might get $20 if I could find a chump with a 20.

The junk wax era. Roughly 86-94, it reached it peak in 1991 when Topps printed 4 MILLION of each card. They're essentially worthless.
Someone needs to pull a Sy Berger and dump millions of cards in the ocean.
The 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle is worth more than his rookie card. That's because in 1952, Topps split their series into two. A low series and a high series. The first card of the high series was the 52 Mantle. The high series was a failure at the time. In 1960, Sy Berger, the designer of the 1952 set was cleaning out the Topps warehouse. He rented a boat and loaded several hundred cases of 1952 High series (presumably thousands of copies of Mantle included) onto it and headed out into the Atlantic were he dumped those cases. Overnight, the 1952 high series went from over produced to scarce and created an instant demand.

In 1986, I had a chance to buy a 52 Mantle, a 4 grade, for $5,500. I passed because I was too busy buying junk. At the time it booked for $8,000 - $9,000, from what I remember. Last time I checked, it was going for nearly $30,000. But I had to have all the hot 80’s rookie cards. “20 years from now , you can sell those 100 B.J Surhoff, Pete Incaviglia, Wally Joyner’s and retire. |

I'd be interested in a signed Tom Gordon card if you've got one.
