1981 Topps Baseball Cards Checklist & Values
For the first time in many years, Topps had to share the baseball card
market with others. Donruss and Fleer entered the market with their own
1981 sets. When collector's heard they were thrilled. When they saw
the Donruss and Fleer cards they were many sighs of disappointment.
1981 will always be remembered for "FERNANDO MANIA" !!!
Fernando did not make the Hall-of-Fame and he even had to share
his rookie card with another player, but he had more impact during
the 1981 season then anyone.
Other rookies included Hall-of-Famers Tim Raines and Harold Baines.
Kirk Gibson's rookie is also here. Not a Hall-of-Famer, but who
can forget his home run off the then unhittable Dennis Eckersley ?

Vintage Boxing cards Checklist & Values
Like baseball cards, boxing cards have been produced in this country
since the 1880's. First in tobacco products, later in gum and candy.
Unlike baseball cards, boxing cards have been produced in many countries
around the world.
In 1910 Mecca and Hassan tobacco companies put out colorful boxing sets
with names like: Jack Johnson, Jim Jeffries, John L. Sullivan & Jim Corbett.
In 1951 Topps joined in with a fairly large card set they called "Ringside".

Are sports cards valuable ?
Like all collectibles, over time some sports cards go down in value,
others go up and some can even become very valuable.
Card values are based on many factors:
player popularity, scarcity, condition & collector interest.
A card can be scarce but without demand value may not be great.
Q: What are some ways to collect cards ?
* Complete sets by year & issue
* Cards of your favorite player
* Cards of your favorite team "TEAM SETS"
* Rookie cards
* Hall-of-Famer cards
* I even had a girlfriend that collected Don Mossi (checkout his ears),
players whose last name start with "Z", and the Brett brothers George &
Ken (she had a crush on George).
* "TYPE COLLECTING" (everyone should at least do a little of this !)
"Type Collecting"
is collecting at least one of each different "type" of issue.
On scarcer issues you can add a less expensive common
while on others you can select your favorite player or team.
