Ryne Sandberg Official Thread

I figured I would start this up since I just requested the Ryne Sandberg Basic and Master Topps sets for the registry. I got the e-mail confim that it is up and running. I just added my set and would love to have any other Ryno fans join in. I'm trying to complete my set in all 10's, so anyone who has some available please let me know. Also, I have one of the more obscure cards available for a Sandberg Master set. I have the 1993 Bleachers promo raw. I also have the Barry Bonds Bleachers promo raw, if a Bonds collector happens across this thread. Send me a PM if you're interested in either cards.

  • I too am a huge Sandberg fan. I don't think anyone can ever accuse him of ever doing PEDs. His Hall of Fame speech was awesome and he was a classy guy. Ryno and Greg Maddux were my 2 favorite baseball players growing up. I am currently attempting to collect as many Maddog PSA 10's as possible for his sets. I've been almost obsessed with checking the internet and ebay about 4-5 times a day for new ones. My next project is going to be collecting all Ryno PSA 10's. I have quite a few already although I want to be 100% commited to his sets before I add those cards to my PSA registry. It's good to see others who appreciated Ryno and it will be fun competing with others on the set registry. I wish there was more competition on the Maddux sets. There seems to be a few big Sandberg collectors on the regisrtys already so it'll be fun competing and collecting with you guys.
    I'm always looking for more Maddux psa 10's:

  • Awesome, you sold me as soon as you mentioned Maddux. I'm a die hard Braves fan and Maddux was my favorite, how I became a Braves fan is a story for another day. I grew up die hard Cal Ripken fan, but the Braves have always been my team and Maddux was the man. I pitched and went as far as getting the exact kind of Wilson A2000 that Maddux used. I also had Ripken's exact glove for when I played middle infield. Sandberg for me was always on my radar. I was born in Chicago and lived there untill I was 5, but I spent every summer back there with my grandparents and other family who is all still there. Ryno was actually the first autograph I ever got and that memory has always stuck with me. He was a fantastic person and player. That made me want to put this set together. I've started my Ripken set also and Maddux will be next after that, so I'll be joining you on the Maddux registry soon I hope. Ryno Topps in all tens has been tough! I own the one 10 1990 Topps, so that one might take awhile to come across anytime soon. I'll be at the Chicago Sun Times show later this month and I'm hoping to pick up some more 10's that I need for my set. Good luck with the set, its always great to talk to another fan.

  • Good luck with the collection. The Sandberg 10's are tough. The 90 Topps you might have to sub yourself. I own the only ten out there. 85 and 88 are also tough issues, low pops. The 89 comes up on Ebay every now and then. I acutally just missed out on some a month ago.

  • Ok, I'm wondering which one of you guys took down the 96 Topps Sandberg. I threw down a $125.25 bid, thinking that would more than cover that card. This had to be a Sandberg collector. It is a great card and congrats on taking it that far, you got a great card. Still, I'm totally shocked at that price! I figured $50-$75 at most. I guess I have to adjust my pricing going forward!

  • Actually, I would be thankful that you didn't win the card. That should be around a $15 card. There are 28 PSA 10's in the population report, so it's not a difficult grade to obtain. More will appear, and you'll be able to get it much cheaper.
  • Oh I agree, I think it was crazy, now that I think back on it I don't even know why I bid that high, I guess just thinking a crazy bid price to lock it up. I picked up my 1990 Topps, which is a pop 1 for $23, so to think this card went that high, nuts!

  • Sorry, I was doing the same thing you did by not expecting another high bidder, you just sets yours a little higher than mine otherwise I would have been stuck with the high price tag. That was the first Ryno I've lost.

    I have a 1992 Topps Micro R Sandberg PSA 10 on the way to my house. It was part of the Group Sub II. I really don't collect RS, but I had that card and it was sub worthy, so now I have a PSA 10. If anyone is interested, he is for sale or trade, I would rather trade than sell for some odd reason. If a trade is doable, I collect Dale Murphy and OPC. Make me an offer

    Anyone care to comment on why there are ZERO 1986 Topps PSA 10 Ryne Sandbergs? In fact only 9 PSA 9's even... whats the deal with 1986 Topps his card?
  • 1986 Topps are tough on centering. Combine that with condition sensitive black borders and you have a hard to find card in mint condition. I busted a wax case and countless rack boxes when the Ryan still had a PSA 10 pop of less than 5. Only pulled one submittable Sandberg and it graded an 8.

    There are serious centering issues with this card, but the real deal breaker are the red print dots and the bleached-out black border. I have come into well centered copies, but I have never found a centered copy that has a deep black surface and no print defects, and I've looked over at least 300 copies of this card.

    This and the Sutton are the two toughest HOFers in the set (the Sutton is probably the hardest, I've never personally seen a copy that would grade higher than a 7). In the years to come when this set begins to pick up steam I think you'll see some truly gross hammer prices for these two cards in PSA 10.

    Alright Sandberg guys. No 10's on the pop report and centering is tough on this issue. Right edge has the OPC rough cut of course. I think I am going to send it in on the special and roll the dice. Grade just popped 8.5 ouch! Cannot imagine what a 10 would even look like!

    T222's PSA 1 or better
  • Nice card. Such a high resolution scan brings out any imperfections in the card, but if those imperfections are not visible to the naked eye (and the black line at the top is just a hair or mark on the sleeve), I think you have a shot at a 10, but most probably a 9.

    It's being talked about in Boston. I'm not sure how likely it is but they did offer him the AAA job at Pawtucket last year and he turned it down. I would guess he's one of the top 5 legit candidates for the job.
