I like this idea...Go with something that's a little more odd, and maybe under appreciated. The standard issues are what they are, and they're readily available by the thousands(if not millions)...Sure, they don't carry the same value, but you're more likely to find someone who doesn't have an OPC, than you are a basic Topps..
As far as standard-issue wax though. I'd think that '83 and '85 Topps would be the best bet, with a triple shot of key(HOF or HOF worthy) rookies in each.. If you're looking to grade and flip, Donruss had some quality control issues early on, so maybe '83 Donruss could give you the chance to land some higher grade Gwynn, Sandberg and Boggs'.. '84 Donruss was always a beautiful and very popular set.. Then your gamble is not only about "if" you'll get the key cards, but also centering... Higher risk, higher reward..
