    Aesthetically/nostalgia speaking, Im a fan of 1980-1987, excluding 1982.  The 88s dont really do it for me.  Ive said it before in this thread, but my favorite looking set of all time is the 1985 Fleer.

    Love all the 80s designs, even the ugly ones like 88 Donruss. 86 Topps is my probably my favorite. Always loved the jumbos!

    88 Donruss? Dear god...lol.

    Some are good and some were really bad.  86 was a great set.

    84 and 85 donruss I'm a big fan of.

    Favorite set you collected as a kid?  What is it?

    85 Donruss

    As an adult I love 1996 Stadium Club.  I have all the Jeter variations.  There are 7 BTW.

    as a kid? Probably either the '80 Topps  or '84 Topps. The Donruss designs weren't really that good early on (first ten years), IMO. I liked Fleer better than Donruss.

    I like this 3 year run of Fleer.  I wish Topps/Fanatics could acquire Fleer so they can create insert cards.



    1984 Fleer


    1985 Fleer


    1986 Fleer

    woah, never saw that Hubbard card. Pretty interesting, cool it was taken at The Vet. Didn't care for the '84 Fleer set either. I did like the '85 and '86 sets though (they looked pretty similar).

    Laughed when I saw that ‘85 Donruss Mattingly posted above because I had just bought this at the antique mall yesterday. I also thought the write up on the back was interesting, something I didn’t know, especially with 1-2 same team batting title connections with the Tigers. The shot of Mattingly is kind of funny.

    ^Nice

    My first Living Set pieces. I’ll probably focus on legends from the past and mainly Detroit Tiger players when buying/considering current players. I did get the Ohtani because I thought it was pretty sharp and it’s a RC at a reasonable price.ni

    I was fortunate enough to snag one of those Ohtani’s in a PSA 9 for $12 before he blew up..

    The Bowman cards are beautiful. I happened upon a couple packs today on a trade and pulled a couple real nice ones.
