Baseball Hobby Card Report was their publication in the 80s. I found 1 issue and maybe have a couple others, but I don't see them too often at a price I would pay, so I don't have as many as I'd like.
How about a Mays RGI set with 1st card auto for $15!! Seems crazy, but back then that was the going price. There is a two page spread selling auto'd 8x10s and the top price for a single signed photo is Roger Maris at $20. Maris and Mantle together photos were $37.50. Those are non-subscriber prices too. Subscribers paid $17.50 & $35.00. This is the Spring 1985 issue and Maris would die later that year. Other notables...Willie Mays, $9.99. Mickey Mantle, $12.99. Sandy Koufax, $9.99.
