In my little corner of the world (Southeastern PA) back in '81, Topps was king. They held that title until 1984; at that point, Donruss became the clear favorite. Donruss held the top spot until 1987, at which point Fleer was the set to get.

After '87, more and more sets were produced. Here are the favorites, at time of release, as I remember them:

1988 - Score
1989 - Upper Deck
1990 - Topps
1991 - Topps
1992 - Ultra
1993 - Finest
1994 - Pinnacle
1995 - Millionaires vs. Billionaires...who gives a s*** about baseball cards
