Card: #1987A-FT Frank Thomas


“ Really like the '87s. Too bad these aren't on card auto's. ” -KMack

“ This is cool. I would be ok with pulling one from a pack. ” -switzr1

“ Ten to one every comment will be complaints about this one...not from me. I like it and if I collected baseball I'd be thrilled to have this card. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Take that ugly sticker off and you have a beautiful card ” -trauty

“ I think they have overdone the throwback cards but 1987 is the first year I really started collecting baseball cards at 5 years old so this set still means alot to me. I also understand a 30 year anniversary card more than the others that just seem to be random. ” -davidhandberry

“ Looks like the pen malfunctioned a bit. Letters almost look like "JJ" ” -rmitchell6700

“ i like the cards. But the sticker they auto on messes it up. ” -parsley24

“ I love everything about this card. The 87 Topps were my first cards, and I'm trying to get them all autographed. Big Hurt before he was hawking testosterone pills. The autograph. The only thing I don't like is that I think it's a blasted sticker autograph, which are dumb. ” -Soldan

“ My favorite player of all-time and one of my favorite sets (the 1987 version of course). ” -carthage44

“ Awesome! Great card. ” -cjjt

“ I love 1987 Topps Baseball, I love Auto cards, when they are on card autos not on sticker (stickographs?) I really hate these silver autograph stickers that Topps used, and other brands use from time to time. ” -captkirk42

“ Such a streaky signature. Topps needs better QC. ” -ketchupman36

“ Take away the sticker and put the auto on the card, and it’s perfect. ” -IfbBirdsCards

“ Now this is sweet! I am not one to rave about inserts, but who doesn't love the 87 Topps design and then a legend like Frank Thomas on it to boot. Finally, the auto. Just very nice. I wonder if I would like it more with the White Sox logo that was used in 87? I'd have to see it. ” -muskie027

Even back in 1987 I didn't like this design. I wasn't a fan of the woodgrain look. It's a design I didn't need to see come back.

Is this a mock up, or is this what the actual sticker looks like?  I looked at some other images for this set, and the rest of them look like either a clear sticker or a signature on the card.

This is a fair point. I haven't seen a sticker autograph with a sticker that "bright" or noticeable in a few years.

I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want.
