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.

1987 Burger King Chicago Cubs Checklist

Number of Cards

In 1987 Burger King had 20 cards, among which was 1 Cubs player.

Size of Cards

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

Basic Features

This 20-card set includes ten panels of two cards each put together, as well as a coupon. The panels are roughly 3 1/2" by 7 5/8" and the individual cards are 2 1/2" by 3 1/2". As such, MLB Properties is not licensed by this set, and as such, team logos have been airbrushed from the pictures. The design is identical to the previous year's set, with the exception of the words "2nd Edition Series" on the front.
