Year: 1988

Set: Donruss (Rate)

Card: #88 Jeff Reed


“ One of my favorite sets. I love when a card company does something completely unique. As soon as you see this border you know 88 Donruss. I love the career highlights and contract status/how acquired on the back. ” -davidhandberry

“ I'm glad these are now listed properly. This reminds me that I need to get mine out and document them as part of my collection, I never remembered to do that once they got listed. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Very nice Neo-Vintage Card. I have always liked the 1980s Donruss cards despite what others think about them or the 1980s in general I start having problems with the overproduced years with some of the 1990s releases and all the foil and chrome stuff they started. As a Nationals fan I honor and respect the Expos history, heck in the very early 70s as a kid (before really knowing anything about baseball) the Expos were one of the Teams I liked collecting in an age when you couldn't be too specific in your collecting. You could only buy cards by the pack. Buying a full box was unheard of and would have been way too expensive if you thought about it, or if the store would even sell by the box. Like the back that is how backs should be the maximum number of colors (3) and no fancy pictures. A single headshot would be OK, but not needed. ” -captkirk42

“ Classic Junk! ” -kirkscards

“ Probably one of the worst logos in history. That being said, i miss the expos. ” -parsley24

“ The site really jumped the shark when it started adding things like this factory set. Nice looking card though. ” -switzr1

“ Fun Fact: the inspiration for this set's border was an Expos uniform. ” -UKboogie

“ Sad card.. ” -Kirbythedodger

I didnt see it until you said that. I see it now.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff.  Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.
