Need info on Topps BB cards 1980, 81

I am not a collector of sports cards and need some advice if possible. I recently bought an old cabinet at an estate sale and it had a Topps card case full of Topps BB cards that are 1980 & 81. Are there any cards from those years that have better than average value. I would like to sell them but I have no clue of where to begin. There are probably 200 of them sorted by team. Any info would be helpful even if they are worthless as it would keep me from wasting my time.

  • making the very large assumption that they are in great shape, you want to look for Henderson (A's) in the 1980 set. Also, any superstars from either year, again, assuming they are in fantastic condition, Ryan (Astros), Brett (Royals), Schmidt (Phillies). You would need to have them graded to get anything more than a few bucks for them. The one exception would be a Henderson RC, which you may get a few bucks for ungraded.

    Without seeing them I would assume they are worthless. Very few people keep their cards in the pristine condition needed to have 1980 and 1981 cards worth your time. I love those early 80's years but you should probably just give to Goodwill and take the deduction!
