First, great thread. I’ve really enjoyed following your journeys.

Came across this site this morning. Interesting about why some players won’t sign some cards. Includes Kelly Gruber: won’t sign any leaf cards; only signs for family.

Thanks for checking out my site!

Sometimes I think it would be easier to name collectors who AREN'T working on the 1987 Topps set. Super popular, and I considered doing it for a while since it's one of my favorites. And then I saw how many were doing it and kicked any thoughts about it to the curb.

I do have several I'd trade potentially if anyone needs them and can help out with my projects.

7, 19, 22, 47, 67, 72, 77, 78, 98, 104, 110, 114, 127, 147, 157, 165, 169, 186, 190, 191, 192, 199, 209, 225, 229, 243, 279, 283, 292, 293, 297, 322, 343, 349, 351, 384, 391, 401, 402, 407, 408, 426, 432, 433, 447, 451, 453, 457, 465, 470, 524, 526, 538, 558, 585, 605, 619, 623, 634, 651, 674, 683, 690, 698, 703, 708, 721, 726, 728, 742, 751, 771, 780, 786, 788, 789

I went to the Moeller Show in Cincinnati today, added Tom Browning.

Here's the Browning card.

I've listened to the audio of Browning's perfect game so many dozens of times. Appreciate you keeping this thread going, Topps206.

Sure, my pleasure, and I’m sure you know about him nearly getting another one until Dickie Thon broke it up July 4, 1989.

Has anyone noticed the insane prices some 87T are going for in recent ebay sales? In the last few weeks I've seen Frank Wills go for $271, Tony Bernazard for over $200, a Frank Williams Traded (in black, and smudged!) for over $230...up now are Tony Phillips, Sammy Stewart and Brian Downing, each closing in on $100, and a personalized Joe Niekro Traded that's over $170 already. All this during a recession. Mind boggling. I realize all these guys (except Bernazard and Downing) are deceased but it's shocking to see how quickly these cards have jumped in the years since the pandemic. I guess all the 80s kids are fully formed adults with deep pockets now. Nostalgia sells.

Correct. Nostalgia sells. But, more specifically, there are signed sets such as 52 Topps, 72 Topps and 87 Topps that collectors pursue very, very aggressively.
