      Such a great time to collect with the addition of Fleer and Donruss. The 1980s are when I collected the most, although the 1970s are my favorites because that’s when I got started.

    FANTASTIC 80s showcase here, Orlando! I’m glad to see the ‘84 Donruss as the Mattingly of choice! I might replace the ‘85 Topps Clemens with the ‘84 Fleer Update one (and add the ‘84 Fleer Update Puckett as well!). VERY impressive Bonds ‘86 Tiffany!! Although I’m a total sucker for Tiffany, I’m personally more partial to the ‘87 Donruss Opening Day Error for Bonds, as I like the exclusivity and low pop count - especially during an era when the printers were never shut off! 😂😂😂
    One more card I would include is a certain Billy Ripken card… 😂
    Awesome video! Right up my alley here!!

    Great cards Orlando. I can’t argue with those cards you shared. I would’ve included Puckett in some way. He was a huge chase for me. 👍🏽

    @stevepulhamus2792 8 днів тому +1

    89 Topps Randy Johnson, 85 Topps Kirby Puckett, 84 Topps Darryl Strawberry, I would have definitely included the 83 Sandberg also, I think you got everyone else correctly, some might be junk wax, but they are still must have cards.

    Love it, Orlando! The 80s, mainly the 2nd half, are right in my prime collecting years as a kid! You picked great ones to represent the decade. Thanks for sharing!

    Awesome stuff, Orlando! You pretty much covered the most iconic rookie cards of the 80’s. Beautiful collection, my friend. Take care!

  • @RL3sports
    @RL3sports 9 днів тому +1

    I agree with your list completely. I'd just add a Kirby for me. I loved the fat guys in the 90's. Gwynn and Kirby.

  • @PickerJimS
    @PickerJimS 8 днів тому +1

    Nice! The 80s are my decade! You some great examples. A few others that I think should be in an 80s collection are the 89 Fleer Billy Ripken FF error, 84 Fleer Update Clemens and Puckett and 82 Donruss Diamond Kings card number 1 in the set, Pete Rose and it’s the first ever Diamond Kings card!

    • @ACollectorsDream
      @ACollectorsDream  8 днів тому

      Thanks for sharing! Definitely need to include those

    • @SlipKid1975
      @SlipKid1975 8 днів тому

      The video was about the must have rookie cards from the era. Agree that Clemens and Puckett should be included but the Ripken and Rose cards aren’t rookies.

  • @CleanCheapShots
    @CleanCheapShots 9 днів тому +1

    Those were some iconic cards you showed. I am going with Henderson as my favorite.

  • @BZARZAGZA
    @BZARZAGZA 9 днів тому +1

    Thanks for including the 84 TT Gooden. He was my 1st pc player. Great video!!

  • @vintageonvintage817
    @vintageonvintage817 9 днів тому +1

    Great group of cards for the 1980s, I would probably add Sandberg, Puckett, and the Billy Ripken FF card.

  • @clevelandsportscards1986
    @clevelandsportscards1986 8 днів тому

    Hey Orlando, it's adam. I just wanted to say your collection is awesome! Thanks for sharing your amazing cards. I agree with you. The 89 upper deck Griffey and the 80 henderson cards are classic and a must for every collector.

  • @fairweathercards
    @fairweathercards 7 днів тому +1

    I love this topic. Great idea Orlando. I have all of these with the exception of the 84 Donruss Mattingly and Tiffany Bonds. I would suggest the 84 Fleer update set, specifically the Puckett and Roger. Thank you for including Bo Jackson. He changed collecting for me. I LOVE the Future Stars version Jackson! In my opinion the 88 Score traded of Craig Biggio is a must have, but take it with a grain of salt because I’ve been an Astros fan since 86. Great video! Respectfully- Shawn.

  • @Hodges1455
    @Hodges1455 8 днів тому

    Gave a video like. Lots of great cards here. The Griffey Jr. is an iconic card for the decade. Same could be said for the Henderson rookie which is on my want list. I don't ever recall seeing Joe Carter's rookie. It is a beautiful card. I will have to add that to my want list. Great video, Orlando. Will look forward to seeing your 70's video.

  • @winstonw2020
    @winstonw2020 9 днів тому

    Thanks for the video Orlando. Love the Henderson, I still have mine I got as a kid. I always wanted an 84 Donruss Mattingly as a kid but could never get one. I finally did as an adult. Thanks again for the awesome content.

  • @Jeremy-VintageCards
    @Jeremy-VintageCards 8 днів тому

    Hi Orlando, Awesome run thru of some of the great 80’s card. That Cal Ripken 82 Traded continues to increase in price. About only one on your list I’m missing. Just got to bite the bullet soon and snag one up! Have a great rest of your week -Jeremy

    • @ACollectorsDream
      @ACollectorsDream  8 днів тому

  • @JeffsCardJourney
    @JeffsCardJourney 9 днів тому

    Great cards. A lot of memories. I packed pulled the 1980 Rickey Henderson as a kid and still have it. I think the 81 Valenzuela RC could also be added because he was such a phenom that year. Thanks

    • @ACollectorsDream
      @ACollectorsDream  9 днів тому

  • @lovetruth1776
    @lovetruth1776 2 дні тому

    I think the 87 rated rookie of McGwire should get an honorable mention. The Topps and Bowman rc of Griffey were also a big deal. Great vid! Your Henderson and Griffey RC look great

  • @ChristopherHasenRedsFan1979
    @ChristopherHasenRedsFan1979 7 днів тому

    Love the video!! Gotta object though you need Larkin in there for 1987. He is a HOF and one of the best shortstops in the 1980s and 1990s.

    @ACD1994 9 днів тому

    Great cards and video, Orlando. The '80s decade starts and ends with 2; of the best, from the '80's. The Rickey Henderson 1980 Topps, and the Ken Griffey JR. 1989 Upper Deck.

    Hi Orlando,
    Thanks for your review of the important cards from the 1980s. It’s good to remember that not everything from the 1980s was junk wax.
    Hope that you are well and happy,

    80s rookie cards are great. Easy and fairly cheap to get for the average collector if you're not going for a 9 or 10 in everything.

  • @adamscardcloset9020
    @adamscardcloset9020 9 днів тому +1

    Sandberg to a lot of people in 83 and Puckett in 85 are two that I would’ve included

  • @PeterPiper2024
    @PeterPiper2024 8 днів тому +1

    1983 topps Ryne Sandberg another banger and must have.

  • @jimmybacas8003
    @jimmybacas8003 9 днів тому +1

    No '81 Topps Harold Baines rookie? 😁But seriously, I'd also figure out how to add a Randy Johnson RC in there somewhere

    • @ACollectorsDream
      @ACollectorsDream  8 днів тому

      Should include Baines and Johnson but for me they are secondary

  • @edsapp6678
    @edsapp6678 8 днів тому +1

    Maybe add the Strawberry and the Bo Jackson w the shoulder pads Score card and 87 Mcgwire Rated Rookie

    • @ACollectorsDream

    @WeskerGriff 9 днів тому

    Only missing the Billy Ripken FF error card, granted it's not a rookie but it's one of the most classic cards of the 80s!

  • @CollectingMaddux1987
    @CollectingMaddux1987 17 годин тому

    One addition would be Barry Larkin. Clear HOFer but often forgotten

  • @jeremygriffin205
    @jeremygriffin205 4 дні тому

    Would include: 81'- Baines, Gibson, Venezuela, Raines & Sax. 83'- Sandberg & Strawberry. 85'- McGuire, Puckett & Davis. 88' Glavine! 89': Just the best draft class in MLB, NFL & NBA!!

  • @dusksfinds
    @dusksfinds 9 днів тому +1

    How do you not include the 1983 Ryne Sandberg!
    No 1985 Kirby Puckett! Blasphemy!
    1981 Fernando Valenzuela is a nice cheap iconic player/card. Topps by far is the best.

    • @ACollectorsDream
      @ACollectorsDream  9 днів тому

      Agree completely on Kirby. Ryno was also popular along with Valenzuela, but second tier for me.

  • @fisherparker159

  • @jsd795
    @jsd795 8 днів тому +1

    If you're talking iconic "chase" cards from the 80's you have to include the 83 traded and 84 Strawberry. The 84 was the definition of a chase card back then.

  • @starscream5263
    @starscream5263 8 днів тому
