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.

Billy Herman

Billy Herman had a remarkable 15-year career in the major leagues, consistently earning All-Star honors. He ranked among the top five in MVP voting on three occasions and participated in four World Series. After spending ten years with the Cubs, he was traded to the Brooklyn Dodgers as the front office believed that second baseman Lou Stringer was prepared to step up to the major leagues. Although Lou had one standout season with the Cubs, he too was traded later in his career.
