1987 FLEER BOX OPENING! (THROWBACK THURSDAY)

[@Metsfan7232]

I remember binge buying these in January 1990 for around 1.50 per pack. Will Clark was the card that everyone wanted at the time.

[@matthewbailey4669]

Found a set of ‘87 fleer along with ‘86 fleer and ‘89 topps at my Goodwill for $3 a piece.

[@matthewbailey4669]

Jakez Breakz bangor maine. Complete sets too. No cards missing

[@dallaspymm6924]

That’s amazing. Good for you.

[@TheRmm1976]

I like how you add some little facts about many of the players!

[@Chefglenn10]

I love the look of these cards! It's so plain and simple yet very classy!

[@allenkung997]

I started collecting in 1986-1987 I recall.1987 fleer were expensive and everybody wanted the Barry Bonds or Will Clark rookie.

[@gd523]

1987, the year my brother and I opened CASES Of Topps, Donruss and Fleer. $13 a box or $10 a box if you bought a full case. Good times!

[@dennispaulsen2408]

Some of those printing bubbles as you call them (printing marks) can be very consistent in that they become varieties. In 1987 Topps I have found some pretty nice ones where I have 20+ all a like. One has a round like eye of a lizard.

[@chadhopkins8508]

Thank God you got all the good cards. Looks like 2 boxes should cover all that. Thanks for sharing Erik.

[@ericj5173]

1987 Fleer - 660 cards in the set. 36 packs in a wax box. You get 1 sticker and 17 cards per pack. Perfect distribution and not factoring the all star inserts from wax packs would get you 612 cards so you will be missing 48 cards for the set with one wax box. Fun watch breaking into these.

[@RealJSchmo]

Fun break. I'd like to see a break of 85 Topps for a throwback Thursday.

[@robertanderson2898]

Sucks about that Bonds rookie card, but still pretty cool, pulled a second one anyway! NO ONE will even get close to Bonds or Aaron's HR totals, maybe not even Ruth's, for a very long time. Albert Pujols is 39, and is still 129 away, but he's been fading fast, he probably won't even reach Mays this year..... Cool video ! Love these.

[@lordblueeyesfrankieg204]

When I was really into collecting back in the 90's I remember loving this set and actually had it, but I felt the packs were always bad for getting good cards. The 87 Donruss was always a much better chance of getting good cards in a pack.

[@luckap79]

16:06 Barry bonds

[@patrickmarasco9956]

PISTOL PAT GREAT VIDEO ON 87' FLEER BASEBALL WAX BOX ERIC. THE LAST 2 PACKS OF BOX 2 WAS GREAT BONDS, JACKSON RCS UNBELIEVABLE ERIC WHAT A WAY TO END THROW BACK THURSDAY ERIC!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍 THUMBS UP ERIC KEEP IT UP ERIC LIKE RIC FLAIR WOULD SAY WOO!!!!!! WOO!!! PISTOL PAT😀😀😀

[@lordblueeyesfrankieg204]

1987 Fleer Barry Larkin Rookie Card was the first "single" card I purchased back in 1989.

[@draguilas3058]

Man!!! and then there is some can't believe I said through the whole video and I was entertained every second so exciting! Great channel and happy to subscribe. I haven't collected cards since Junior High, your TBT took me back. Can't wait till next week keep it up.

[@JabsFamily]

Thanks very much! I like doing the TBT each Thursday

[@drewbravo7432]

Mark Grace never achieved lasting superstar status with the hobby. That playoff duel with him & Will Clark both hitting like .500 in the series was MLB gold.

[@view247flix]

This set is one of my favorite Fleer sets to collect. I was in Junior High in 1987 when it was produced. It was hard to find wax,cello and rack packs in my area of Upper Michigan. Now I'm trying to put together a hand collated set. I have a long way to go. It really sucked to see that the Bonds RC had the ink defect in the card along with other stars and commons.

[@aaronscollectinganddetecti3018]

i like the commercial when andre dawson got lost in the ivy at wrigley field!😂

[@chuckprince8794]

Enjoyed this video. I pulled out a lot of my 87 Fleer and they just dont look glossy like yours. I have updates that are very glossy..but my 87s are more of a dull cardboard look... wo dering if my cards have gone bad through the years. Thank you for another cool Throwback Thursday

[@SinnycoolGames]

Should put all these on a playlist. Really helping me out knowing which cards are good as i go through 2 big totes of 80s n 90s cards. A video i would like to see maybe show all the best cards from 80s and 90s sets like which ones to watch out for and how much they are worth. Thx! New subscriber here!

[@charlescarnahan225]

Kirby Puckett, Cal Ripken Jr, and Ryan Sandberg would've been an amazing pack back then

[@allenkung997]

Back than, everybody was looking for Kevin Seitzer rookie when he was with the Royals.

[@destro13cobra68]

I was very happy to see Darren get both the bonds and the jackson in the last two packs!! Great break and beautiful set!!

[@D3Csportscards]

When I seen that Will Clark in the last pack I knew Bonds was coming. Clark was in the other Bonds pack.

[@ericgerber4099]

Love the “last pack magic” call!

[@chrisdrake7689]

Yes down to the wire and Bo Jackson and Barry Bonds rookies, awesome Jabs!

[@nathanp4908]

You have the best luck pulling significant cards. I've watched so many of your vids and it amazes me just how many times you end up pulling the cards you are hoping to get. Great stuff! And thanks for reminding me of the good ol days, when I'd save my chore money to go buy baseball cards.

[@brunomarion7151]

The first box was not great, glad you bought 2!

[@tforucla]

Nice job on pulling the clean Bonds.

[@swisherswish1072]

I got the Bo Jackson and the Barry Bonds RC back in 87. Great stuff you got today.

[@4lb517]

Your the best baseball card collector

[@philipgodin9379]

Steve Garvey was a decent player? Really? He was one of the top guys from the mid 70's till the mid 80's.

[@aceldamia9114]

I don't even want to admit to how many boxes of these I bought back in 87. Might only be topped by 90 Donruss.

[@nealarnett4300]

87 fleet one of my favorites. Was hard to find in my area back then. So loaded up in Topps. Thanks for videos!

[@forjuniorgolfers]

For some reason they were hard to find in my area as well?? Donruss was difficult too!

[@DaGreatBrandonie]

Canseco's rookie was '86.

[@aaronbrannick1889]

Nice redemption for the printing calamity on the first bonds!! Great video broski

[@drewbravo7432]

Also, i think there was a year when the Kevin Seitzer rc from 87 Fleer was listed in Beckett as a top 3 hot cards in the set.

[@The_Card_Squad]

Fun break. Bummer about that Bonds

[@mikejeter6918]

I'd pay WAY more for the Bonds card because of the printing errors, Erik. That makes it far more rare. To me that was an insane pull! Compare the amount of those to the regular ones that got printed to oblivion, and in that condition... That's an amazing card.

[@wvogs1850]

I said before I always enjoy your throwback Thursday

[@jamesscythes2957]

Congrats Darren! Erik, you should open a box of 1993 Bowman. I just bought a box and pulled a Jeter rookie.

[@orbonds3603]

Such a nice set...sucks they made so many...the glossies are real nice to shuffle thru

[@Cardcollector65jw]

I have the complete set in factory box of the 1987 Topps and tons of 1987 fleer that I need to see if it is a full set or not

[@thebookoffesteskyle1753]

nice throwback thursday

[@natevlogs1297]

last time i opened a wax box of 1987 fleer, i pulled a Greg Maddox rookie card in the first pack!

[@trentwarren7861]

Canseco rookie card was in the regular 1986 fleer set.

[@WaveofCards]

Yep! He was thinking Topps. Canseco first Topps is an 87, was only in 86 Topps Update.

[@tomdonegan5350]

Awesome you got two boxes

[@garysiegel213]

Phillies dumped Carmelo Martinez on the Pirates. Pirates screwed up the waiver process and the Phils got some top OF prospects from them on waivers (Wes Chamberlain, Julio Pegeuro) though none became stars. Pirates did not mean to waive them, but the Phils gave them Martinez as compensation just to be nice. Nice video

[@dmm5159]

All these cards had so many posed photos that's it's amusing to see the rare action shot

[@matthewsadler5048]

Nice pull with 2 Bonds and a Bo

[@KingArthurBaseball]

Good idea to get 2

[@dallaspymm6924]

Wow! What an ending.

[@lindrake8315]

I would contact Fleer and see if they can replace the Bonds. Lol

[@haleydev]

It’d be fun if some of these old card company’s like leaf and fleer and upper deck still released lots of cards like topps does

[@randyluxenberg7245]

Bonds and Bo!...great pulls

[@trevorwilliams2482]

Nice throw back boxs but i found out Hatcher got sent down to the minors to be the outfield/baserunning coordinator for the team. He might not be with the major league club but at least he still has a job within the Reds.

[@thebookoffesteskyle1753]

the 1987 fleer was my favorite set that year

[@TheGargoylesDen]

Sorry I missed the box opening! I watched it just now and I'm stoked about the Cal Ripken jr card as well as Kirby Puckett and Ryne Sandberg of my cubbies! (I grew up in central Illinois and just moved here to Arizona 4 1/2 years ago...) Can you believe I have 32 Cal Ripken jr Cards but I didnt have this one!? (Or his 82 rookie card...just sayin....) That's awesome! Thanks Jabs!

[@dmm5159]

Last pack magic!

[@Not_Jtp2770]

Sweet that's cool

[@orbonds3603]

No manager cards😓...imagine a crisp 87 fleer billy martin!

[@alanneel1369]

im a big fan of 87 fleer.....87 donruss is nice too..there is a 87 fleer glossy set it comes in a metal box

[@ssjnimma]

Great set for sure!

[@deanbeckstein3337]

If i am not mistaken canseco shares a rookie card with cecil fielder in the 86 fleer set.

[@marklindeman9428]

I run a printing press, a big giant commercial press. Your asterisk Barry was a bustle wheel problem, and such a shame for that card! Basically, a bustle wheel corrects (or incorrects in this case) the air pressure placed upon a specific part of the sheet going through an ink unit. In this case, it looks like the bustle wheels were offset in the blue ink unit of that press, creating that line. In big expensive jobs, this is absolutely unacceptable in the printing world. But you're looking at the junk wax era, where the guys in charge were more focused on quantity and not quality.

[@wesleybeck3953]

Nolan Ryan: GOAT

[@dylansantos244]

Awesome video Eric

[@timmetevelis8172]

I'd still be happy with a Barry bonds rc even with a printing error.

[@kevnoxious]

Roller Mark I believe on the Barry Bonds

[@mcgooglio3684]

I beleive Carmelo Martinez hit one to the wall to end the 1990 NLCS. His warning track power left a bad impression in your memory.

[@rockfilipowicz5349]

These fleer were sharp looking

[@LuckyLucky-vd3xo]

Billy Hatcher was the man in the 1990 World Series. BTW while watching Indians and Jays tonight I have determined that Jays catcher Danny Jansen is a Chris Sabo wannabe.

[@completecontroll7165]

From a lifelong Braves fan to a lifelong Pirate fan-- Francisco Cabrera

[@paullilko41]

Jamie Moyer was on the ballot in 2018. Got the same amount of votes as Johan Santana if I recall

[@aaronscollectinganddetecti3018]

yeah 71s are hard to get in good condition

[@brittanybruce1137]

Your next throwback Thursday box should be 1994 Upper Deck or 2001 Topps American Pie

[@augien.6865]

👍

[@heyzooz]

I just added two videos of old cards. Can you please take a minute and take a look? Would like your input or opinion

[@Ted_E_Bear]

Love the videos!!

[@TheRmm1976]

16:05 dude you just pulled the Barry Bonds print error card!! That thing is like pulling a no name or reverse negative, it's worth about $100k if it grades out PSA10!

[@902SportsCards]

Very very simple design

[@patientmental875]

Theres something fishy but consistent with these box openings from bbce the unicorn card is always scarce or messed up in some sort of way!

[@bfgolf]

1991 upper deck maybe pull a Michael Jordan

[@toddrichardson8595]

A rare and valuable card

[@wasteoftime1721]

Last pack magic

[@4lb517]

Good vid

[@jamiemoore2550]

Nice vid fella loving the stickers in that set..🐲💀🐲

[@BAMtv1317]

If it wasn’t for your channel I wouldn’t have found out that this place is pretty close to me I go on the regular now super chill people there, so if anyone needs anything HMU usually they go a little cheaper then whats on there site I don’t mind selling it for cost plus ship if it means helping someone in the card community since I got there kinda often

[@HOAGhosted]

I got a box of that for $4 as well as a 1986 donruss Box.

[@hunterbuescher4107]

On that set i pulled a matt Williams one on the 1987 fleer update

[@dominiccampbell1989]

Not sure if you have ever done 1989 Dunruss authenticated box. Looks like its affordable on EBAY. To me the Ken Griffey jr card is hot. PSA 10 is over $300. That's a box I would be interested in buying.

[@krisroberts6615]

How do you assign people to receive each stack of cards?

[@krisroberts6615]

of course, you explained it halfway through the video

[@connorthornberry7059]

Love the videos thanks for the good content

[@gd523]

Shame! that printing error Bonds looked like a 9 or 10 too :( DEAD CENTERED

[@Todd-fc2xb]

I have the Yount and Clemens slabbed.

[@JerzeyPrince23]

Try to get 1994 either SP or Upper Deck to search for Alex Rodriguez RC.

[@dmm5159]

Inserts are neat

[@aranaboys1637]

I loved watching Barry Bonds, Best player I've ever watched, had to walk him or he wouldn't make you pay. Barry should be in the hall.

[@ilovejabsfam945]

Nice video loved it thank you

[@hunterbuescher4107]

Oh do a complete set of 1987 fleer update
