1981 Donruss Baseball
Collector's were excited when they heard Donruss was entering the
baseball card market. Excitement turned to disappointment
once they saw the cards. They were awful ! Print on very cheap, weak
card stock with were un-inspiring images.
TOP ROOKIES: Hall-of-Famers Tim Raines and Harold Baines.
Who will ever forget "Fernando Mania" ???
Apparently Donruss ...
WIth no Fernando rookie card in the Donruss set, the Topps and Fleer
sets (with Fernando) became nuch more desirable.
Fernando Valenzuela is NOT in the Hall-of-Fame, but he was 100%
the most popular player of 1981.
Another rookie of note was Danny Ainge who later became a NBA
basketball player with the Boston Celtics.

Are sports cards valuable ?
Like all collectibles, over time some sports cards go down in value,
others go up and some can even become very valuable.
Card values are based on many factors:
player popularity, scarcity, condition & collector interest.
A card can be scarce but without demand value may not be great.
Q: What are some ways to collect cards ?
* Complete sets by year & issue
* Cards of your favorite player
* Cards of your favorite team "TEAM SETS"
* Rookie cards
* Hall-of-Famer cards
* I even had a girlfriend that collected Don Mossi (checkout his ears),
players whose last name start with "Z", and the Brett brothers George &
Ken (she had a crush on George).
* "TYPE COLLECTING" (everyone should at least do a little of this !)
"Type Collecting"
is collecting at least one of each different "type" of issue.
On scarcer issues you can add a less expensive common
while on others you can select your favorite player or team.
