1987 was the first year I really saw packs of cards "everywhere", candy stores, drug stores, supermarkets, etc., so that's where I say Junk Wax Era started, then it started to snowball after that with Score and Upper Deck coming online

Junk wax started in 1987, the year after the introduction to Michael Jordan's Fleer rookie card. Card companies knew kids wanted to get their hands on the latest Jordan, Bo Jackson, Jose Canseco, and all of the other major ball players at the time. The height of it was 1989 with Griffey Jr, of course. Junk wax ended in 1995 with card companies including very rare inserts and serial numbering becoming more prevalent in those cards.

One of the best repacks I have seen in a while. Definitely some cards that would grade out nicely. As far as the junk wax era, 86 or 87 seems to be the time when they started to crank up the presses on production.

That Henderson is a Tiffany. This was a decent box, not 300 decent though. I think a fair price would be 115-130.00, but I do understand it's Mantle chase series so they have to recoup quite a bit of cash. A lot of those cards are in very good condition, but even those great looking older cards generally don't grade out 9 or 10. Absolutely light-years better than the last Universal Treasures.
