The one good thing about Covid was it brought out a few new to the hobby junk wax variations. It also made a few example that used to be silly rare fairly common.
This is very hard to believe but I guess with 1989 Fleer, you never really know. Back is 2005-2006, I opened dozens of factory sets before I understood the ins and outs of production over a hobby season. There was absolutely nothing interesting whatsoever in any of those so I quit bothering with them. Then a few years ago a guy told me about Treadways being in some factory sets and until I recently found 10 (took 8) at $5/ea in a Goodwill, I hadn't bothered with them and only mildly regret the $40 sunk.
