Question about 1990 Score football

My neighbor knows that I collect baseball cards so when he found a box of 1990 Score football he gave it to me.

I just got back into collecting after a long absence and know nothing about football cards. Is there anything special that I should look for? Rookies etc?

My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

  • It's a junk year with nothing booking over $1.25 so don't get too excited.

    Not many good rc cards but just look for 10 material star cards. Set collectors would be happy to buy anything of their favorite player in 10 form. I know I do image

    Nothing much worthwhile in the big card hunt sense, but if you liked the NFL during the era and you like good photography, it's a fun set to collect.

    For example, just for sheer aesthetic appeal, that's probably my favorite Marino card.
  • I've got all the 90 score football sets you could ever want $4.00 a pieceimage

    I think i'm still sitting on about 4 cases of them.

    Well, it's not football, but I do love the design of the late 80s/early 90s Score baseball sets (1991 is my favorite), even if monetairly they're barely worth the paper they're printed on. image

  • Bunker, for future reference always include the word(s) "Emmitt" or "Smith" in your post. That way, lawnmowerman will get the instant notification via cell phone/pager and it won't take 5 and a half hours for him to respond. image

    For instance, I would write ...

    "Just wondering ... do you guys know if PSA intends to also grade wax boxes along with packs? Thanks

    Arthur









    Emmitt Smith"

    Works like a charm! image

    Actually I just walked in from stuffing my gut at the local Pizza parlor. I went there to eat and talk about the game with the owners. They are Mets fans as well. Im glad they moved here from NY. They have the best Pizza around!
