Thats what I know. I remember going to walmart then and all you saw was trading cards everywhere! I did find the Reggie Jackson one in my collection the other day and do not remember where I got it. I did have a Mark McGuire Rookie card but dont remember where I put it.

his cards arent worth crap since the steroids, anyone with a "bad name" in baseball, there stuff is shot. you can even get pete rose cards from the 70's for a little of nothing. thing about it is though, ANYTHING is worth what someone is willing to pay for it

Went back to Walmart and bought an October Beckett Sports Card Monthly magazine. I also bought a couple 98 cent packs of 2010 Score Football cards. One pack had a Demaryius Thomas Hot Rookies card booked at $40! Another pack had Tim Tebows Rookie Card booked at $8. Had it been Tim's Hot Rookies card it would be $250! Man why did I quit collecting all those years ago?!?!
