I love the 80s
I know that there are at least a few closeted 1980s collectors on the Net54 memorabilia side. Even Mark S. had a 1980s jersey in his most recent TSOG video. Would love to see what 1980s treasures everyone has.
I'll start with this SF Giants circa 1988 Humm-Baby pennant. I've been collecting Giants pennants for at least 15 years and had never seen it before. I know there are some very rare baseball and football pennants from the 1980s that go under the radar. |

Billy Ball! Back when an autograph was worth getting.

Nice, Doug! I can still hear the Billy Ball radio jingle in my head. You can hear it on this video at about the 29 minutes and 45 seconds mark.

These 80s series pennants are incredibly rare and undervalued in my opinion.

Nice, Rob. I'll add a few from that Ken Anderson 1982 NFL Properties series in a bit.
As for Butchie and the 1989 World Series, I was also in San Jose at the time. Playing wiffle ball. I had been to game 2 in Oakland. Here are some pins from that World Series. |

I must admit the 1980s have been growing on me lately, regarding both baseball and music.

HOF Randy Johnson game used ML debut hat
I've shown this Randy Johnson ML debut game used Montreal Expos hat before, but it fits this 80's thread to a T being that it's from 1988.
The hat was gifted to a young Mets fan by the Expos equipment manager at the next series after RJ's debut in Montreal. Some unknown rookie... Great gift! Here's to the 1980's! Last edited by Scott Garner; 06-04-2024 at 09:35 PM. |

The 80's sure do beat what MLB serves us now...

That's a great looking pennant, what year is the team that signed it?

Good stuff, guys. The Randy Johnson debut hat is especially nice.
This is probably my favorite early 1980s Giants pennant. Uncommon, but not exactly rare. Love the colors and reminds me of the orange pullover jerseys (maybe Oooribay or Mark S has one to show)? |

Thanks, Doug. 1982. If you look closely it's written on there

Not orange, but hopefully this jet black pull-over fits the bill. Timing is spot-on (1982) and it doesn’t get much more “80s” than this. Frank Robinson’s Jersey as manager of the Giants in 1982. Gotta love that ‘80s vibe!

Nice, Mark! My first real memories of the Giants are with Robinson as the Manager. Here are some items that go with the patch (these are doubles for me... in case anyone is interested). The pennant is uncommon.

Eye candy…some 80s (and 90s) packs on display make me happy.

Yep, 80s are my childhood era. Fun to see all this stuff.

All this talk about the 1980s makes me want to watch MTV and rip open some packs.

I have some 1980s wax around as well, but no pictures handy.
Speaking of ripping 1980s wax, the 1981 Donruss video below is worth it (if you haven't already seen it). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idvOXhb-9FE&t=1036s |

I can add a pair* of 1981 'rack packs' to the tally...
1981rackpacks.jpg *I have no clue why I took the pictures the way I did (a long time ago)...making it seem like there are more than just the two of them there. That's kinda weird.
