Topps 1984 Nestles

My latest score! This set, I have learned, was released on uncut sheets which had to be cut by whatever means possible. Since the people who cut them were not the people who normally do this sort of thing, my collection of nearly 2,000 cards looks like it has a crew cut.

But you know, whatever...

I'm only 45 short and I have plenty to spare of this typically hard to complete set. How far along are you?

Topps 1984



The year I graduated high school. I wasn't much into baseball at the time which seems strange now since the Tigers were on their way to winning the World Series. I was worried about starting college and staying out of jail after hitting a teacher with a cream pie (long story. Remind me to tell you about it later).

Still...

Somehow I managed to round up all but 1 of the cards in this 792 card set (Ron Kittle). If only I could go back and do all the other things I missed out on in 1984 so easily.
