Appreciating 80's Cards

[CobbSpikedMe]

I have boxes of 1988 and 1989 Topps on my dresser and pull a pack every now and then and open it for old time's sake. It's quite fun even though the cards are basically worthless.

I also collect rookies from the 80's in PSA 8 slabs because I remember not being able to afford them as a kid or never being lucky enough to pull them from packs. So now that I'm older, I'm picking them up. In PSA 8 they aren't that expensive but are still very nice examples. That way I can get more of them for the same price as say a PSA 10 example.

I can relate! This year I have picked up really nice condition sets that I never could have as a kid, like '84 Fleer Update and '84 Donruss to name a couple.

Here are a few of mine. I don't have too many more.
