1981 Fleer Baseball


Collector's were excited when they heard Fleer was re-entering the baseball card market. Their prior issues, the 1959 Fleer Ted Williams set and their 1963 Fleer baseball-Star sets were hgue succeses. What did they have up their sleeve ???
The answer was NOTHING !
What a mess. Awful ! Poorly printed on medicore card stock, the images were even worse. Then to cap it off, Fleer introduced tons of errors into their set. Some think it was done on purpose to force collector's to keep collecting. Nearly all were useless. The only one to draw much attention was the Graig Nettles variations. One had his name spelled Craig on back. WOW !!!

TOP ROOKIES: Hall-of-Famers Tim Raines and Harold Baines.
Who will ever forget "Fernando Mania" ???
Fleer didn't forget and had him featured on his own card while Topps had him share one of their multi-player rookie cards.

Oother rookies of note were Danny Ainge, later a pro with the Boston Celtics and World Series hero Kirk Gibson.

How long have sports cards been around ? (part 2)

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.
