1989 OPC represents the first baseball cards I ever bought. It was the Spring of '89 I had never collected cards, but was a big Blue Jays fan. At a local flea market I picked up a 1989 O-Pee-Chee team Blue Jays team for $2.00. That got me hooked. I spend the rest of that summer buying 10-card packs for 35 cents apiece. I clearly remember watching an ad on a TV shopping network for 1989 Topps factory sets and thinking, "What the...? Those look like the cards I have, but there are so many more!" It was my first lesson in the Topps/OPC relationship. | ||
