LO freaking L!!! 3 packs in and I can't stop laughing. For anybody who was around when these came out (I was), I heartily recommend the trip down memory lane. Funny, I almost bought a box of these out of nostalgia a few weeks ago, waited a bit too long, and the seller jacked the price up 50 bucks (don't blame them at all in this market), and I took it off my watch list. Would have been awesome if they were all Expos and A's instead of Yankees and Royals, but still, centering and quality control was appalling. Might have ended up with a stack of 99/1 centered Tim Raines Rookies. Last edited by D. Bergin; 01-22-2021 at 12:43 PM. |

The 1981 Donruss set holds my favorite Tony LaRussa card.

WOW...that brought back memories...getting doubles in the same pack was simply unreal to an 11 year old! But triples? That was undoubtedly the worst box ever. John Wathan, Bill Caudill...that was unreal and entertaining...thanks for the link!

I remember it was the last to come out, think they got their license late. I liked the set (warts and all) since most of the photos were from Chicago. Very few Topps were from Chicago. As a Cubs fan, the first box I opened didn't have a single Cub in it, nor any from #500 on - and thats with 18 cards/pack. The sizes were all over the place on these.

I was 8 years old and was really into the 1980 Topps. 81 Topps was beautiful with that little cap at the bottom. For some reason, I had about 22 Ed Glynn cards. Dad was a pharmaceutical salesman and I gather he did someone a favor and he brought home boxes and boxes of Donruss and Fleer cards. Of course, over the course of a 3 or 4 years, I opened every pack.
