I received my package yesterday. I couldn't let you know until this morning. They are doing some street digging in the neighborhood and must have cut a cable. We did not have any TV or internet most of yesterday until they fixed it this morning.
I did not open the box yet.
Just a thought about the packs that we are going to open--I wouldn't mind some info on the sets(cards) each week from anyone that is familiar with each week's set. I know what the stars are, but what cards are difficult because of centering, print marks, varieties,etc. I wouldn't mind learning things about any of the sets. Maybe some were already planning on doing that, if so, great and I encourage more.
I will take a guess at 2176 posts.

Collector of 1976 Topps baseball for some stupid reason. Collector of Pittsburgh Pirates cards for a slightly less stupid reason. My Pirates Collection
First, I cheated. The 1981 Fleer box came with two bonus packs, and I kept them for myself. Sue me.
Anyway, these cards are pulled from three packs.
Why these guys?
1. I *loved* Eddie Murray when I was a kid, in about 1984 and 85. He and Cal Ripken were probably my first "favorite player"s. (Others to follow were Steve Garvey, Tony Gwynn, Rickey Henderson and, finally, Will Clark.)
2. Tony Armas. I just always liked this guy. I even drafted his son in my Strat-O-Matic league in 1998. Anyone remember than Tony Armas Jr. was actually a Yankee farmhand, then a Red Sox, then traded for Pedro Martinez to the Expos?
3. Rick Manning was *huge* news in Milwaukee in 1985, when the Brewers dealt cult hero Gorman Thomas for him. It seemed like blasphemy at the time, but both guys more or less stunk every after, so it didn't really matter.
4. Rollie Fingers. The Brewers retired his number, despite the fact that he pitched a total of about 260 innings for them. A travesty.
5. Hmmm...which of these guys doesn't belong? (and when did dudes stop getting perms like Michael Jack and crazy-ass Bowa did?)
6. No one has ever looked more like a ballplayer than Rickey Henderson. He's like the Jack Nicholson of baseball...pure coolness.

Here is mine. The reason I chose these six certain HOFers is because they are the only guys I heard of. That says a lot because I am a huge baseball fan. The other 11 guys averaged 4.3 minor league team names on the flipside.
Tom Lasorda Lee Mazzilli Mike Griffin Brian Asselstine Rick Monday Steve Henderson Pete Rose - 75/25 left to right and print mark. Slight corner and edge wear. 8oc at best. George Foster Garth Iorg Paul Molitor - 20/80 top to bottom, 70/30 left to right and corners slightly touched. Rick Cerone Jose Morales Steve Braun Lary Sorensen - Possible 9 Ron Guidry - Same as Molitor above. John Castino Jim Essian
Nice pack for quality of players but probably none worth submitting. A fun rip though! Can't wait for more posts.
Scans will follow when the daughter goes to sleep.
Cough, cough, hack, hack... That gum was awful!! It just disintegrated in my mouth! Spit, spit, spit...
I might qualify for the losingest pack of the box! Here are my "highlights" :
The reason I picked these cards:
1. Charlie Leibrandt - Braves, Twins, World Series...need I say more?! 2. Tony Bernazard - because I got to see him play for the Denver Bears on a pretty good Expos AAA team with Raines, Wallach, Randy Bass, Francona, et al. 3. Kurt Bevacqua - because this is the ultra rare and valuable reversed image version! (Any offers on this one???) 4. Sparky Lyle - because I needed a fourth to complete the scan...
Other cards included: Luis Salazar - Padres Julio Cruz - Mariners Ken Reitz - Cardinals Rick Rhoden - Pirates Steve Mura - Padres Dennis Kinney - (another!!) Padres Gary Lavelle - Giants Luis Pujols - Astros (any relation to Albert???) Scot Thompson - Cubs Omar Moreno - Pirates Willy Montanez - ...Padres... Max Venable - Giants Terry Puhl - Astros with waxy back and all!
Thanks again, ajw!
Good luck to the rest of you! Ahhh. Feels good to get this underway finally...
Awesome posts so far guys. I'm actually barely awake at this point. Nothing like working outside in direct sunlight for 8 hours in Baltimore today pulling off an old porch and scraping 60 years of paint off columns to make a man nearly hallucinate(I'm mad I didn't!). Needless to say, I'm enjoying some brews right now...waking up at 545 tommorow morning and leaving DC for Baltimore around 630. Another 8-10 hour day. Money is money though and my reward for finishing the project in 2 days will be cracking open that pack of Fleer!

There are 3 variations of cards so far. The Schmidt is the "batting" card as there is also a "pose" card for that #5. The George Foster is the "slugger" variation and there is an "outfield" variation as well. And the Bevacqua rev. neg.

I picked these cards to scan because the centering is decent and, except for the Rose, the cards have nice corners.

OK here is mine....sorry but my scanner is not working.
Only three worth mentioning. Alan Trammell (with a large noticible print dot under the team name), Fred Lynn, and Rickey Henderson Most Stolen Bases. Both the hewnderson and Trammell are slightly off center to the left but probably not enough for a qualifer and the Lynn is very nicely centered.

Eh........Hardly worth scanning. Foster has the gum stain. Hopefully better Sunday... Hard to believe that baseball's most feared slugger was as small as Rice is, compared to the musclebound beasts playing today. He once hit a line shot off the wall at Fenway that everyone swore never went no more tha 8 feet high - just a frozen rope.
All my 81 fleer were centered nicely, no big names though. There is however a very nice Tony Perez, Dennis Martinez and what would have been a 10 Lou Whitaker. I got to looking at it closer, but in the lower right corner there are 3 wrinkles that are hard to see without magnification.
Everything is just a bit OC, but in great condition. 1981 is only the second year I bought cards in packs. I remember the Fleer cards being just terribly off center. It looks like we got a good batch.
