1981 O-Pee-Chee Baseball...

Today I picked up 5 complete sets of 1981 OPC Baseball. I thought I would share some pictures.
Most of you know how difficult centering can be with OPC cards but in my opinion, 1981 is hands down the most difficult set to find centered and it's not even close!
Finding well centered cards from this set is like trying to find a needle in a hay stack - no joke!

Anyways, the 5 sets came in and I must say, I AM AMAZED!!!!

This is a small sample of some of the star cards.

2 of the sets had gray backs mixed in and the other 3 were cream backs but in this condition and with the centering on these, I don't care what color backs they are.
I know some of you OPC collectors will appreciate these scans...

    Always tough to tell from a scan but that Raines is SHARP.

    That Raines is a blazer. 10 potential?

    Truly beautiful, cards Tom. If you get that kind of centering throughout, you have done well. Congrats.

    In that second group, Tom, I see some cards that are nearly perfectly centered. That is very amazing.
