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 ?

Checklist & Values
The top rookie was Hall-of-Famer and Red Sox great Carl Yastrzemski.
Other rookies included Hall-of-Famer Jim Kaat. Check him out on Wiki

The there was that Giants Hall-of-Famer Willie McCovey and then that
GIANT of a man, Frank Howard. SUch a great crop that future .363 hitting
Batting Champ Tommy Davis barely makes this list.

Baseball, Football, Basketball & Hockey Memorabilia Cards
It's cool to have a card of your favorite player.
It's even cooler to have your favorite player's jersey or bat.
Well just think how cool it is to have a card of your favorite player
embedded with a piece of his bat or jersey that he used in a real major league game !!!
That's the concept that Upper Deck dazzled the hobby with in 1996. Ever since the
hobby has been in love with Game-Used memorabilia cards and they have become a
staple of sportscard collecting. Originally they were very scarce inserts with
less than 1 every few boxes. Now these insert cards are so popular that
many products include one in every pack.
Be sure you visit our Game-Used card section with nearly 1,000 available at
discount prices.
