The John Garrett card ranks as one of my all-time favorites.
I agree....a great set.
my favourite set also but for different reasons--I had started collecting again in the 80's and bought packs and singles--had a chance to buy during the season for $36.00---for a case, which I believe had 16 boxes--still wish I had some left--traded away and sold most--I do have autographed copies of the top five RC's
Nice write-up Sal. Believe it or not I JUST purchased this set about 2 weeks ago in really good shape. I have about 6 or 7 commons that need replacement but other than that it's pretty much mint, including very nice copies of the major rookies. I enjoyed reading this post.
I loved this set. I probably busted 10 boxes of it or more that season and even won the promotion (got me the set in three uncut sheets). It made '85-86 all the more disappointing.
I did hear that OPC printed so much of it due to the promotion that they had a ton left over. This led to the scaling back of '85-86.
Great set, I have both OPC and topps and both mint. Topps version seriously underrated and can be found on the 'bay for less than 30 bucks! Never understood why Pelle Lindbergh was left out of both sets.
