Yeah, you know, I never really bought the stickers at the time, either. But the 86 Star Stickers with the (Ron) Burgundy borders are my favorite. Particularly the Ozzie Smith. I have just about every one of Ozzie's cards, and it is 1986 Fleer Star sticker that is my all-time favorite of his issues!

Fleer made tiny stickers one year to. 84' or 85' I think. I even liked those. They were on much thicker stock then the flimsy Topps stickers of the period.

Actually looking it up, they made them 83' through 85'. I don't even remember the 1983's or the 1985's. Just the browish bordered '84's. They seem to be a lot less common then the larger sized Star Sticker Cards.

HaHa! Nice. Got my '81's in yesterday. Haven't succumbed to ripping them open yet. I kind of like the way they look in the Unopened boxes for now.............if that makes any sense.

Brought myself back down to earth and picked up one more B18 Blanket common to go towards my very slow pursuit of a player set.

Sorry for the confusion. I'm going for 1 of each player in the B18 set. I'm not concerned about the variations or a master set at this point.

I'm only at about 25 right now, so I still have quite a ways to go.
