<< <i>How many McDonalds cards of Payton were made? Im thinking there may be different color variations. Im I right?
I do remember getting those cards at Mcdonalds but at that time I didn't think anything about it and probably threw them away with the empty fry box. Ain't that how it always goes........ >>
There were 10 McDonalds Walter Payton cards. Two in 1985 and 8 in 1986. I only have one of the 1985' s but they are quite a bit larger then the 86's and contain a scratch off coupon on the bottom. If the Bears won the game you won one prize and if they lost you recieved a lesser food deal. There are two 1986 McDonalds sets that have Payton in it. Both an All-Star set and a Bears Team set. Both sets come in four colors Black, Green, Blue & Orange which represent the colors of the detachable scratch off coupon on the bottom. Here are two examples from SMB's Pieces of History #1 set. I also remember having these cards as a kid but I always scratched the bottoms of the cards

Actually, there are 11 different McDonald's cards, as there are three color variations from the 1985 sets - Blue for NFC Divisional Playoffs, Orange for NFC Championship and Yellow for Super Bowl XX. The 1985 cards seem to be much rarer and, as is the case for all supersized cards, are VERY tough to get in high grade.
Thanks for the clarification on the 85's! As always you are truely a great asset to this thread. I rarely see the 85's for sale and the one I have would probably grade a 6 or 7 at best.

Did you have a chance to check the flip on the holder? I was always under the impression that the Sports Collectors Digest Graded cards were good but after they sold and the name was changed to Sports Cards Direct (?) they became no better then PRO grading. I was also able to pick up two PSA 8's today for my set. 1979 Topps Rushing Leaders W/ Campbell #3 & 1981 Topps Bears TL #264. I got them both from Naxcom for &17.05 shipped. Not a bad deal but that site is not very user friendly!

So I am a little depressed after the Bears game yesterday but I was able to add two PSA 9 stickers to my collection over the weekend. As I approach 50% completion on my set I am finding it harder and harder to find new items to add. I used to be able to add new items at any time but now I am having to hunt deeper. Anyone have any extra Payton PSa cards they want to sell for my set?

Won a 85 McDonalds Orange Card off ebay.. Its just a PSA 6 but im very happy. Now I have one I probably had in 85 when I ordered a big mac and fries and tossed the card............ lol
<< <i>Is there any Payton card that is so rare it could possibly outsell a PSA 9 rookie (at about $550-$600)? >>
If the question is about PSA 9s, either of the 1977 Topps Mexicans would sell for considerably more than the Topps Rookie. They both have sold for well more than $600 even in PSA 8, and the lone PSA 9 of the Rushing Leaders has sold for MUCH more. I've also been offered more than $600 for the Holsum PSA 9, and the Saga disc is probably right in the ballpark. All but the Holsum have an equal or higher weighted value in the set, and rightly so.

I saw that auction and I almost bid on it as well. I think I didn't (if I recall correctly) because the seller didn't take paypal. As always thanks for all the knowledge Bearcollector!

I've got a question for Steve (BearCollector) and I didn't want to hijack Gregs thread. I know the 1988 Monty Gum Payton is not in the master set registry. Any reason for this? It has other 1988 cards. Maybe we can have it added.
BTW Thanks to 4sc listing two cards I needed, I now have every Payton card issued in regular Topps sets!!

Sorry for the delay in responding, but we've been out of town for the weekend. Anyway, the rules are laid out under the "Set Requests" tab on every web page under the Set Registry portion of the PSA web site:
In general, player sets consist of cards for that player which were manufactured during the player's play years. Exceptions: Many companies produce cards for players the year after the player has retired. These cards will be allowed if they list the previous year's stats for that player on the back of the card or were manufactured expressly to depict activity from the previous and final play year.
The 1988 Kenner card clearly fits since it has Walter's entire career stats including the 1987 season (notably the ONLY card produced that has his entire career stats, thus a very important card). The 1988 Topps RB card fits since it depicts activity from the 1987 season, namely Walter setting a new rushing TD record.
Other cards, such as the Monty Gum card in question, do not meet these rules.
Thought I'd share some just-released results from a few Payton submissions I made last week in an effort to upgrade my set where possible. This first one is fairly satisfying, as I got another one of the Waddington's in a PSA 10 (just 2 more to have all 10s on those). I thought one of the Saga discs had a real good shot at a 10, but now I've got a couple of spare 9s to sell. Also thought the Coke disc was a potential 10. Overall, not great, but OK.

I've got 2 more subs due to pop yesterday - I'll post when they hit.
<< <i>WOW great results and cards! I can't wait to see the next results. Are any of the waddingtons for sale? >>
Sure, the Waddington's, as well as any others, are open to sale. I have some other stuff from previous grading attempts that I'll try to dig up as well, and I'll post an entire list of stuff with modest pricing once the next two subs pop up. I should have some dupes of some tough super-sized and Tall Boy stuff among other things.
If so, please let me assure you that I (eBay moniker "pieces_of_history") am in no way affiliated with MOSH, and in fact have crossed horns with MOSH on Payton items before. I am simply offering this item up to see if it generates some interest on the 1985 Topps side of the house due to it's 1/1 status - enough at least to warrant a high enough bid to be willing to part with it.
I have some Paytons that I had forgotten about. Although I am a huge Payton fan, I stopped collecting years ago, and although my admiration for Walter will never diminish, I would like to see my cards go to someone that actively collects. I started a thread listing what I found. Please let me know if you are possibly interested in any of them. I can be reached via email - ericm1979@hotmail.com.

Other than the Commemoratives, which were basically just attempts to upgrade to all PSA 8+ in that set, as well as the 1985 FB Immortals card, each one of these I submitted with reasonable hopes of getting a 10. Getting three PSA 10s is reasonable, and really nice on the ones that did grade out - especially the 1983 #213 sticker, which is extremely tough to find centered. I must say that I am somewhat disappointed to get just an 8 on the Immortals card, as I thought I finally had a real shot at getting a 9. That card is TOUGH to even find, and especially tough to find without corner dings. Oh well ...
If anyone is interested, I pulled several nice Monty Gum Walter Payton stickers. They are #9 and show Walter Payton diving over the goal line. Please PM or e-mail me at montooth13 at yahoo.com if interested. Attached is a link to the thread on the B/S/T board.
I just recieved a PSA 8 1978 Slim Jim Walter Payton disc from another board member. Very cool item and I am happy it fits into a regular size PSA holder. I thought it would come in a larger holder like the Crane Discs. I also have one of those Monty Gum cards coming from Greg. It's a shame it can't be added to the registy but it's is still a nice card to have. Anyone else have any new additions?

Thanks to a recent purchase from Steve (Bearcollector) I am now in the top 10! Steve is a great seller as well as the most knowledgable Payton collector I have come across. Did anyone notice the creased raw 1978 Slim Jim Payton sold for nearly $40??! There is one on Naxcom for less then that ($30) but It is not cut very well. There are some nice Payton items up on Ebay now but the starting bids on some of the items seem to be high.

Yes, it's true. I figured I've gone about as far as I could with this set, although the journey was a ton of fun.
The breakup already started with sales of my 1977 and 1984 Topps Basic PSA 10s, and some offline contacts (about 24 more cards have been spoken for already). I also have another 11 or so up on eBay now. If you or anyone else has a specific card or cards you'd be interested in, I'd be glad to send out a spreadsheet of available items and/or provide suggested prices (with bulk discounts as appropriate). PM me anytime, or e-mail me at piecesofhistory@sbcglobal.net
I was going thru my cards and I wanted to share this with the Payton fans. I live north of Houston and in 1982 the area I grew up in had a tennis tournament. My parents were big into it and it was close to home so I decided to check it out. Well I get there and I am kinda bored, then I see this guy playing in the pro-am part of it and I instanly recognize him as Walter Payton. He looked quite funny on a tennis court, short guy with tree trunks for legs running around hitting a little ball. He was not very good at it but made up for that with his atheletism, haha. He was all over the court and just outplayed the other players who had played much more tennis.
Before his second match I had my mom run me home so I could pick up a card for an auto. I got back watched him win his next match and then went up to him for the auto. I was lucky as there was no one there to see him so I was the only person who came up to him then. He gave me his auto and we talked a bit, mainly about his tennis and football. I left with the auto and how classy a guy he was for chatting to me that day. I think he got to the finals but then lost but you could tell he really wanted to win, no surprise as he had more will to win than most players dream of.
Just wanted to let you know the Walter Payton Topps Master set is now on-line. I submitted this set request because there are alot of Topps Payton cards I collect, but I did'nt want to chase down all the obscure cards from other companies. I really did'nt want to include the stickers but I saw no other way to get the set request approved.
I have a psa 9 and a psa 10 1987 topps sticker Walter Payton available. Just PM me with an offer, or trade me a psa 9 or psa 10 payton that you do not need!

Actually, there are 11 different McDonald's cards, as there are three color variations from the 1985 sets - Blue for NFC Divisional Playoffs, Orange for NFC Championship and Yellow for Super Bowl XX. The 1985 cards seem to be much rarer and, as is the case for all supersized cards, are VERY tough to get in high grade.

Other than the Commemoratives, which were basically just attempts to upgrade to all PSA 8+ in that set, as well as the 1985 FB Immortals card, each one of these I submitted with reasonable hopes of getting a 10. Getting three PSA 10s is reasonable, and really nice on the ones that did grade out - especially the 1983 #213 sticker, which is extremely tough to find centered. I must say that I am somewhat disappointed to get just an 8 on the Immortals card, as I thought I finally had a real shot at getting a 9. That card is TOUGH to even find, and especially tough to find without corner dings. Oh well ...

I need a 77' Payton PSA 9 to upgrade my set.
Thanks,
Tom

I just picked up a PSA 8 1979 Stop-N-Go that I can't wait for it to arrive!

<< <i>So there seems to be a ton of rare Payton stuff on Ebay now. I seem to be getting outbid during the last minute of many auctions. Today I sign in and do my daily search and I see Bearcollector (#1 finest all-time) is breaking up his set!! Say it ain't so!! I have had the privilage of doing buisness with him outside of Ebay and he is a class act. I hope the sale goes great for you. (That is code for "I hope I win several of your auctions)
Yes, it's true. I figured I've gone about as far as I could with this set, although the journey was a ton of fun.
The breakup already started with sales of my 1977 and 1984 Topps Basic PSA 10s, and some offline contacts (about 24 more cards have been spoken for already). I also have another 11 or so up on eBay now. If you or anyone else has a specific card or cards you'd be interested in, I'd be glad to send out a spreadsheet of available items and/or provide suggested prices (with bulk discounts as appropriate). PM me anytime, or e-mail me at piecesofhistory@sbcglobal.net
Before his second match I had my mom run me home so I could pick up a card for an auto. I got back watched him win his next match and then went up to him for the auto. I was lucky as there was no one there to see him so I was the only person who came up to him then. He gave me his auto and we talked a bit, mainly about his tennis and football. I left with the auto and how classy a guy he was for chatting to me that day. I think he got to the finals but then lost but you could tell he really wanted to win, no surprise as he had more will to win than most players dream of.
Here you go-
That is the ultimate centerpiece for a football card collection. I would love to have that card!

Just wanted to let you know the Walter Payton Topps Master set is now on-line.
I submitted this set request because there are alot of Topps Payton cards I collect, but I did'nt want to chase down all the obscure cards from other companies. I really did'nt want to include the stickers but I saw no other way to get the set request approved.
