Heeeey, it's nice to see someone pull such a nice card as that CRipken RC. I had hoped to see one in my distrubtion, but didn't. I really enjoyed the cards of the players I got -- especially the very first card, Rod Carew IA, #501. That's one of my all-time favorites (non-Twin!) of him. The second card was Joe Niekro, #611. Jeez, busted on TV when he threw a file out of his back pocket to the ground -- as a Twin by the way.

I really enjoyed my 1982 pack. No Ripken, but I got another decent shortstop. I really like this design, and I love the special cards, including the All-Stars, highlights and In-Action cards. (Some of the cards in this pack were slightly bowed, which makes the scans look a bit goofy.)
1. Not a real good hair day for the Hawk 2. Off-cut, but maybe Mike could use a nail file to shave down the right edge. I didn't know he was a Met to start his career. His 1986 season was simply amazing. 3. Another Hawk. I *loved* collecting stickers in this era. Maybe even more than cards. The first complete box I got was a box of stickers - my grandma bought it for me when I was in Florida. I couldn't believe that she bought the WHOLE box. That was unheard of! 4. Did you know that Porter was MVP of the 1982 World Series? 5. Fernandomania! 6. I love cards from Ozzie's days on the Padres. He looks so out of place.
Wow, this '82 pack could've quite possibly have been the worst in my whole batch so far.

I don't know...I'd consider that a pretty good pack. Two HOFers (Yount, Reggie), one that should be (Raines) and one that was a frequent All-Star (Garvey). I know we're all looking for the Ripken rookie, but maybe our sights are set a little too high.
My pack got even better. I saw that lots of guys had stickers in their scans, but I had no sticker. I went through the cards again. My sticker was one of my all-time favorites - Rickey Henderson. I'll post a pick when I get home. It is OC, but it still be Rickey.

fsjeter, If the #139 Jeff Jones card is solid and should grade PSA 9/10 I would buy that card from you for my Registry set. I would buy any of the 12 or so cards I still need to finish if in mint condition (excluding the Seaver AS which I have and needs a corrected flip).
Arny Vee, the Reggie Smith card is one tough card to find in high grade,if yours is a lock for a 9 I would be interested for my raw set. I was able to buy the only PSA 10 from another 82 Registry collector luckily but the best I ever found myself from cases was one example that graded 8.

Nope. It's nicely centered on the front (a little off top to bottom but within limits) but the print defects along the top border and slight corner/surface ware would keep it from being a 9/10. I'd give it a 7 with an outside shot at an 8. Sorry!

Scott, I knew it was a long shot on the Jeff Jones card but worth a try! After 4 yrs the best I've been able to come up with is a PSA 8 Jones. Thanks for checking back,I appreciate it! Good luck with your sets! Steve
tennesseebanker has what looks to be some real colorful 82's. I like the Putnam and Campbell cards also Hoofhearted's Dodgers Ldr card. Nice!
1981...the year I was married and the year I started collecting again after 13 years of single-living and partying.
That's a nice lookin' Yount! The cards in my '81 pack were either badly OC or nicely centered. Here's my pack:
55 Mike Norris (A's P; wax on front -- easily wiped off!) 535 Omar Moreno (Pirates OF) 392 Lance Parrish (Tigers C) 153 Tom Poquette (Red Sox OF) 71 Hal Dues (Expos P) 300 Paul Molitor (Brewers 2B-SS) 425 Al Bumbry (Orioles OF) 142 Jackson Todd (Blue Jays P) 679 LA Dodgers Team 85 Mike Caldwell (Brewers P) 582 Gaylord Perry (Yankees P) 225 Ruppert Jones (Yankees OF) 362 Bo Diaz (Indians C) 113 Mike Phillips (Cardinals 3B-2B) 667 KC Royals team
My pack had many OC and some miscut cards. My two best ones were the two pictured below...at least one was of a very good pitcher who happens to have some...ahem...legal problems right now.
Here are the other cards....
Bobby Castillo - Dodgers Pitcher Dickie Noles - Phillies Pitcher Otto Velez - Blue Jays Outfielder Geoff Zahn - Twins Pitcher Ron Davis - Yankees Pitcher Tom Hausman - Mets Pitcher Jim Essian - A's Catcher Denny Willing - Astros Outfielder Jim Wohlford - Giants Outfielder Ramon Aviles - Phillies 2B-SS Al Williams - Twins Pitcher Mike Krukow - Cubs Pitcher Billy Sample - Rangers Outfielder

I got another good pack this week. The Pete Rose I pulled back in '81, I traded to my neighbor along with all of my other Phillies for all of his Pirates. Good trade. I think the Don Robinson below is the first Pirate card I've pulled from all of these packs. 1981 was also this first year I bought a whole set at once. Well, my mom actually sprung the $13 for the set at a flea market in Adamstown, PA. It was professionally packaged in a wax box.

When the wax is on the glossy card front, I just use an old tube sock. I rub it back and forth a few times over the wax spots, taking care not to snag a corner or the edge. The friction warms the wax, making it easily removed.
Yoo Hoo! My 81 pack yielded me the highly touted and heavily sought after rookie card of Joe Charboneau. Also got Tony Armas.........still waiting for my Henderson rookie.

Hey guys this looks like it's been a fun rip. Not to bust into the thread but I wanted to see if any would be interested in doing another 80s wax rip with all three topps donruss and fleer. Cost would be roughly 60 for 28 packs . Talked with steve at bbcx and we could get all 28 boxes. If there's any interest pm me and I'll start a new thread.
my 81's yielded lots of oc and a nice yaz but yaz is smeared with wax. i am gonna try hoof's advice and see what happens. nice baines back there. how under rated was he? and where are all the fernando's ???
