Archives Project: 1989 Upper Deck

Sunday, July 19th, 2009

I managed to get my hands on some 1989 Upper Deck when it just came out.  Upper Deck made those overproduced ugly cardboard Topps cards at the time look like trash.  From 1989 until I effectively stopped collecting cards in 1992, I was buying more and more Upper Deck cards each year, while buying fewer and fewer Topps cards.

In the early 90′s, hologram technology was all the rage.  There were hologram arcade games (remember arcades in the mall?), action figures with holograms on them, hologram stickers, and then Upper Deck baseball cards.  These were cool cards for kids in the 90′s.  Here’s what I still have:

  1. #8 Cris Carpenter (Rookie) *x2
  2. #130 Orel Hershiser
  3. #205 Andre Dawson
  4. #349 Dave Winfield
  5. #366 Dwight Evans
  6. #661 Orel Hershiser (Cy Young Award)
  7. #665 Orel Hershiser (MVP)
  8. #667 Orel Hershiser (World Series MVP)

Archives Project: 1990 Topps Traded

Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

Well, now that I’ve collected one of each regular series basic Topps hobby box from the past 25 years, and integrated every regular series basic Topps card from my old collection into my new collection, I’ve decided to foray into Topps Traded and Topps Updates sets.  I felt bad for not getting 2008 Topps Updates and Highlights last year, and it’s gonna be a long offseason if I don’t get this year’s Update set, so the decision has been made… 25yearsofbaseball will include Topps Updates A.K.A. Topps Series 3.

I was never into the Topps Traded sets when I was collecting as a kid, probably because most of the time they were only available as complete sets.  In 1990, I did get my hands on a few packs of 1990 Topps Traded.  It’s a completely worthless set that I wouldn’t pay more than the price of a Starbucks coffee today.  The only cards of note in the set are David Justice and John Olerud rookie cards, which were cool in 1990, but with our hindsight we know that those players are not exactly Hall of Fame material.  Beckett lists the complete set as going for anywhere between $1.25 and $3.00.
