I loved the Mets names in this era: Lenny Dykstra, Dave Magadan, Kevin Elster, Darryl Strawberry, Dwight Gooden, Tim Teufel, Mackey Sasser, Ron Darling, David Cone, Rick Aguilera, Kevin Tapani, Mookie Wilson. All cool baseball names.
I bought a box from a case to be from the error timeline and was guaranteed (as long as it was pulled ) pulled both the Marlboro and F Face … graded 10 and 9 … awesome pulls
There was a "People's Court" episode involving a fight over the Billy Ripken card and Judge Wapner couldn't believe the value.."his brother is a much better player"...and wasn't very happy that obscenity was worth so much...lollll
The year the Pirates traded for Steve Buechele was the season he set a career high in HR. I'm a Rangers fan, and a lot of us weren't happy that he was traded. He wasn't the greatest player, but he was a fan favorite in Texas.
I have 7 graded Ripken ERROR cards graded from 7s to 9s in psa and sgc slabs. I also have a PSA 9 of the Scribbled out in white Ripken, which there are only 30 that exist in that grade. This is my favorite set and chase card from the late 80s early 90s. Thanks for this video and your content, love it
It went through 3 different types...it was planned by fleer...the first one went high as $400...month later the 2nd one took its place...then when the 3rd came out, people started asking questions...fleer planned this to boast sells...
Cal tells a different story about it. Billy wrote it on there but it was in thin black marker. He was insinuating that Fleer made it bold and printed it that way for attention.
I think the Billy Ripken error card actually went through two or three different corrections, black scribble, white box, and black box, with black box being the most common
The other night?I had a Dream that I had the mark McGuire team.USA card and It was able to have him to sign it.That was a good dream too bad when I woke up it wasn't real l o l
i'd have to say that if you purchased packs that had the fleer update cards in them with the griffey jr, there was no chance of getting a ripkin ff card. opposite ends of the print cycle. ripkin ff would've been an early print with no update cards in the packs
I used to get my fleer boxes from a 90 year old lady at a flea market I go to. Every box had a ff card and a partially obscure marlboro card. I have quite the few of each now.

Hell to the yeah!
Just pulled the unedited Ripken Monday. Been chasing that "White Whale" since 89!

Baseball Stars on the NES is the bomb
Well this is a nice early birthday treat!This is one of my favorite junk wax sets!
Fun one, I once pulled a uncensored ripken, woulda thought I won powerball
It always cracks me up just how many players you used to hate as a kid.
Good blast from the past!

My favorite card of all time! Always a classic, Erik!
Click bait.. c’mon jabs your better than that

Great throwback! Awesome video as usual, Jabs! Preciate ya! 🙏
Bringin back some really good ole memories right here now💯✅✌️🇺🇸
Always liked the Donruss Kings Inserts
Hi Erik, great video. I really enjoyed watching this throw back Thursday. 89 Fleer brings back some great memories. Thank you for the video.
I like the design it's just so classic fleer

Awesome video, love the throwback
I never did find the Billy Ripken. Fun video!
Assuming the sticker won't work because it wouldn't stick to a bunch of uneven wax paper cracked me up. 😂😂
It went through 3 different types...it was planned by fleer...the first one went high as $400...month later the 2nd one took its place...then when the 3rd came out, people started asking questions...fleer planned this to boast sells...
I found the Billy Ripken F face card in my dads baseball card collection! Nice find
I just pulled the Ken Griffey jr and bill ripken “f-face” card while watching this video!!!
A product to try is
2002 Donruss Super Estrellas
Jerry Reuss aka Gary Busey on a good day
Hope mike trout gets a world series ring he deserves it
Now that bat nob would make a fantastic 1/1. But then again it is Billy. 🤣
17:46 and 19:56 damn right!
Rec Specs was a brand name of goggles
Cal tells a different story about it. Billy wrote it on there but it was in thin black marker. He was insinuating that Fleer made it bold and printed it that way for attention.
RBI 1 is insanely fun
Mike Trout's numbers if he'd stayed healthy would have been nuts guy missed almost ,600 games.
I'm Pretty sure the sticker fidget stick because you tried sticking it on wax paper.
Topps did collectors a favor by not allowing gum to be inside the packs. Stickers and puzzles never damaged the cards like gum has
Acuna Jr first 30 HR/60 SB guy.
That's their name...recspecs

Not f face the name is Rick face on bat
Kid in 1989: “I’ll trade you Baines for your Canseco.”
Me: “LOL”
I wouldn't buy any wax boxes from the late '80's...dealers were caught opening the packs for rookie cards. Then resealing them for sale...
A psa 10 billy Ripken ff error card is worth a bit over $400 dollars.
That's Kevin Brown's second year card
Love that billy Ripken corrected version card and that Griffey jr rookie card
I have both f-face and black box in sgc 8 . Would like to get back scribble version. The white version is really expensive.
it is strange that it was edited in so many different ways instead of an immediate black box after the ff was discovered.

Lee Smith is a HOFer and was not pulled??

@johnsherman8649 bro that's awesome! Error cards were so cool to have back then lol and still are
I’ve come to the realization. You’ve hated a lot of things as a child. 😂
Thanks Jabs! 1st
Back in 1989 I sent in the hole set to psa and got them graded
Like the gum and stickers, but wasn't a fan of Donruss puzzles.
Wasn't there a Mike Heith error card in 89 fleer with the wrong name on the back?
Yes. Heath had the Brookens back and Brookens had the heath back
@@deanbeckstein3337 thanks I knew I remembered it from back in 89. Just forgot the error
Something bout T.P. huh? Don't like Tom Prince or Ted Power lol
back in the day everybody wanted sammy sosa and mark mcgwire that got caut doing steroids. now the cards are worth not that much money
@@snerdterguson yup and aver one had to have they cards to.
ok
Junksal was bashing you and your brother In his 89 fleer box opening. He said your brother is worse than you
No he didn’t
@@Baconfat11 guess you didn't listen to video.
