1990 Score Baseball 8 Box Case rip

bunt

The case cardboard protection is kinda cool Would that thick Bo cardboard card be of interest ?

1990 Score baseball was one of my favorite sets of the "junk era".

Released on the heels of the popular 1989 Score football, I remember 1990 Score Baseball being perceived as "scarce" for the times

The good-ole pre-internet days.

The local market for kids was dictated by the local card shops and the gas stations.

I remember 1990 Score going for $1.25 a pack at one point, which was Upper Deck money.


Once I pulled the BO card while at a card shop, and the owner pulled out his Polaroid camera, snapped a pic, and pinned it up on the shop's "Wall of Fame," along with everyone else who pulled a key card from a pack opened at the shop.

For the junk wax Bo cards and other stuff - this is the stuff to get ! Will save the box with Bo on top and the case cardboard protector in case any Bo fans out there seeking this stuff.

At one point, I remember some dealer was referring to 1990 Score as "the 1984 Donruss of the 1990's"

We need a creative demise for the rest of the boxes!

Loyalty32

I remember running up to the corner store when they would get in the boxes of 1990 Score. Me and a buddy would rip as fast as we could looking for that Bo Jackson card. To be 11 or 12 again.... I'd still like to get that card in a PSA 10 one day.

Thanks

BOOOO !!!!! SCARY !

bunt

Boom ! Got one of these in each pack ! Ohhh yeah - the excitement of this - t'he little 3d cards - if bent back and forth - either said 'THE MVP' or 'NL/AL and YEAR !' The backs though was where the REAL excitement came from - The player' This insert set lead the world in 90's Sports Card product inserts. Bow to the master of all 90's inserts:

addicted2ebay

I remember buying this set in 1990 and the dealer telling me how he bought two of them so he could enjoy looking threw one while the other sat in his safe and made money LOL!

CDsNuts collects the 3D cards...

I liked Thant score always used action shots, but it was always just of the player, never one with another player.

BOX ONE BO JACKSONS !

Cokin75

Loved '90 Score at the time, and still have a soft spot for it. In the midst of the 'Bo card' frenzy, they were selling for 20 bucks a box

Busting for Bo's. Live it!!!

Superfractor?

Good luck with the grading. Should pull a bunch of Gems!!

bunt

uhhcccchhhhh , there it is. mockery.

miconelegacy

Wish you the best. Unfortunately the dr actors started later.

Makes me want to get into some cases of those. PSA 10's should sell good or at least you'll make money on the case.

No mochery think its great!!

Let us know how many 10's you pull.

Good Luck!

bunt

Will Do !!! I will let 'us' know how good I do on 1990 Score Baseball card PSA 10's.

You seem to be someone like a used car salesman - ever cheat anyone ?

digicat

Find any Sandberg errors in the box?

wow a decent Brewer Rookie for a change!!

Wish you the best Bunt thanks for taking the time to share. Great throwback 90's rip!

No Sandbergs of any kind in that first box - Will keep an eye out - and also investigate what the error is !

RedHeart54

The Sandberg error has 3B as his position on the front. Was a $10-$12 card back then.

bunt

There was a Sandberg actually in the box - but not the error kind.

Box 1 star cards -

RipublicaninMass

Does anyone care (value wise) about the errors in this set? Sandburg, Milt Cuyler, Wells, etc

hammered

Is that a hotel bedspread?

digicat

The Sandburg error is this one: 1989 highlights. If 3b is listed as his position, then it's the error. His 1989 highlights card should have NO position listed.

Shouldn't they have waited oh, I don't know, for the 90s to be almost over before making that call? The 1992 Bowman set or 1993 Finest regular set (refractors are way too far out of most people's budgets) would be the two contenders for that title.

Score had the best product - thanks for sharing

1991 and 1994 are my personal favorite years in terms of design. For 1994 I got both regular and Gold Rush sets (really awesome looking set)...though maybe someone here could help little ol' me with the other 1994 Score insert sets if they got some lying around looking for a good home?

bunt

Box 2 -

The lost rookies -


Stars -





And the cool ones

Estil

Don't those red/blue/green borders (don't forget the orange ones in the R/T set) remind you of the classic Nickelodeon game show Make the Grade that was on around that same time?

bunt

oh man,. am tired - I just had to actually scroll down here three friggin pages to find this

Box 3

The top three guys: Orel, Sabo, and Fernando - were just simply cool back then



Stars mostly repeated

The Bo's

Estil

Now we just need someone to do a 1991 break...though for that you'll need one of each series. Trouble is I think factory sets at BBCE still go for a mere $6 (and what a BEAST that set is at 900 cards...you need three binders to fit both 1991 and 1992 sets and their R/T's more comfortably) so...

bunt

Box 4:











It's on

bunt

Packs were NOT waterproof - soaked clean through - Box 4 unfortunately didn't make it




Stuck together etc

lahmejoon

Oh man, this made me laugh. That was awesome. Score needed you in their quality control department.

bunt

Box 5 you know you want it to continue with this 1990 SCORE !

(ughhhhhhhhzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz snoooooze.. ughhhhhhhhhhhh snooze..ugh)

Highlights

totallyradd

I can't stop laughing about Box 4. That was incredible!

Morning after regrets? Might have to start calling you 'Mo'

bunt

heh - Yep. My message board skills are severely lacking - need to find a course on how to be a pro Don't know who Mo is but you can call me Mom if that would work

The morning forum check used to have a lot of blank posts from Maurice that he'd posted the night before and removed by morning.

This thread brought back some old memories. I walked down stairs to see how many 1990 Score Error cases I still had and my new cat Mikey was guarding them for me.

Estil

Awwww my little boy Jamiee looks just like your new little BFF but he doesn't have the white underneath. So now you too know who man's REAL best friend is!

My 1990 Score 8 box case would kick all your cases' asses


Geez - when will this thread go away - gotta open though - no matter how snoozefest it has become:

Boxes 6 and 7 highlights will be posted below (gag) Then one day soon - the unfortunate #8 box will go down - badly. The only thing worse than bustin' all this would be a 1986 Topps Baseball vending box case where all cards are reverse and upside down.

bunt

Box 8 will experience possibly the most horrific activity ever some day soon.
