I am pretty sure my first exposure to baseball stickers was the 1988 Red Foley book. My mom won a contest from the local radio station for a group of books, and this was in it. I remember spending an entire day putting all the stickers in the correct spot. I am pretty sure I still have it somewhere in my collection. Sometime in the near future I will have to dig it out and write a more in depth post about it. In the meantime, you can enjoy the stickers I received in a pwe from TCDB member distirbed1 last week.
Unlike previous years, the 1994 Panini set is almost standard sized. The green border is not bad, but I still prefer the red like on the 1987 Fleer McGee card. It was the only non sticker in the trade. Kind of a weird color schem with red and purple borders to go along with blue and white text. Leave out the purple and it would be pretty sharp.
1989 Panini brings back great memories. I had tons of '88 and '89 stickers as a kid. Re-captured my childhood by buying a box and album of '88 a couple years ago. Seeing these Cardinals stickers - especially the sparkly stadium - makes me want to do the same for the '89 edition.
ReplyDeleteI keep telling myself to get a current Topps Album one of these days for my son to do, but never have. I agree it makes a collector feel like a kid again.
