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.

Number of Cards

64 postcards in the Marketcom Conlon set which there are 3 Cubs.

Size of Cards

The postcards measures approximately 3 1/2" x 5 1/2"

Basic Features

Showcasing sepia-toned images of baseball legends captured by Charles Martin Conlon from 1905 to 1935, these postcards were released in two editions, each featuring 32 borderless postcards housed in a sepia-toned folder. This collection was created in very limited quantities and is regarded as one of the more elusive Conlon sets, particularly when found in pristine condition.

To ensure you don't purchase a counterfeit piece of history, always obtain a professionally graded card from a trusted seller. Graded cards are expected to appreciate significantly in value over time.
