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.

I love baseball; therefore, there were additional trivia questions about the sport included with the stamps. The stamps are presented below in alphabetical order and are not numbered. Three distinct colored Vend-A-Strip dispensers were also used to distribute the stamps. There were 18 stamps and 11 quizzes in each row of a dispensor, for a total of 288 stamps.
