Is that all you got in the entire box?

I busted a ton of 87 Donruss and generally speaking had bad luck with the star cards. Of course all of the big guns in the set have fallen off the planet due to roids or abrupt careers.

no, just started. more to come

I still need a PSA 10 Fisk. If you have any that look Gem Minty fresh, lmk. Thanks!

I also agree with DrJ. The '87 Donruss set from an aesthetic point of view was my favorite bb set of the '80's. However the cheating escapades of Bonds, McGwire and Palmeiro has rendered the set almost worthless...what a shame!

Good stuff so far, I would say out of everything you have pulled so far the Brett Dk has a chance at a Psa 10.
If you go by the little baseballs on the left and right edges that should provide a good starting point to eye the centering of the card.
If they arent lined up well, (the same amount of ball on each side, then don't even think about a 10.
The cards are also very susceptible to chipping along those black borders.
Good Luck !

One of my favorite sets from the '80s. Looks like you are doing well.

How hard is it to get a PSA 10, as compared to say 1986 Topps??
