1982 Fleer Baseball
1982 was a big year for Fleer baseball cards with the
introduction of their long running DIAMOND KINGS subset.
The artwork of Dick Perez was featured in all it's glory !
The Diamond Kings became so popular they went from a subset to
an insert set to scarce autographed inserts to eventually their
very own set.

Also having a huge impact on this set was the appearance of one of baseballs all-time greats, the Orioles Cal Ripken. Note: You may be on that page right now. |
The first important and mainstream basketball set was issued by Bowman in 1948. Other than a Topps set in 1957-58 and a 1961-62 Fleer set, there were no mainstream basketball sets issued until Topps started producing yearly sets beginning with their 1969-70 set featuring the rookie card of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who then went under the name of Lew Alcindor.
In hockey, there were a few sets issued in the 1910's and while O-Pee-Chee issued some sets in the 1930's, the real modern sets began in 1951 with the itroduction of Parkhurst's first set.
In racing, while cards go back as far as the early Indy car days of 1911, modern racing sets began in 1988 with the issues released by MAXX.
