Welcome Cubs Fans!

This blog will explore the baseball card collecting hobby of the 1980s, particularly highlighting the Chicago Cubs. Unlike vintage baseball cards, most modern cards are quite budget-friendly. The different sets will be much easier to find. Therefore, with thousands of cards in the mix, we will begin with the 80 Topps and conclude with the highly valuable 1985 Topps Mini Test. The pinnacle of this era was marked by the Sandberg Rookie of the Year in 1983.

Size of Cards

The standard-sized cards are the following dimensions: 2-1/2" by 3-1/2"

Basic Features

The Burger King emblem is featured on the front of the cards along with the words "Collector's Series" in green ink. The 1980 Topps Burger King Pinch, Hit and Run Baseball checklist is divided into three phases: pitchers (cards 1-11), batters (cards 12-22), and base stealers/runners (cards 23-33). Each subset is numbered alphabetically according to the players' names. The back of the cards has a black and red background with the usual bio and stats.

Burger King turned out to be a disappointment for Cubs collectors, as they only had one other set that featured a Cubs player. It was a 1987 non-licensed 20-card All-Pro #18 set, which included Ryne Sandberg.
