1982 Topps Baseball

I had pretty much moved on from baseball cards after the 1980 season. I bought nothing in 1981. Then, for my birthday in 1982, my uncle (who worked in a candy store in Brooklyn) bought me two wax boxes of 1982 Topps baseball. It kind of rekindled my interest briefly, and I loved the design of that set compared to surrounding years.

I ripped both boxes and they sat in a closet for 35 years. I'm finally going through them and plan to put together a really nice raw NM/M set with PSA 9 stars. After going through the first 50 numbers, I think I'll end up with around 40% of the set in really nice shape from the cards I already have. Maybe I can rip some more wax and racks since they're still affordable. I'm looking forward to working on this set even though it doesn't have much value.
