Old Becketts.......
#11

RE: Old Becketts.......
I still have the Bo Jackson issue where he is wearing the shoulder pads and has the bat behind his neck. And a handful of others from the late 80's/early 90's.

I think i have a card like that somewhere. I also have a Jordan playing baseball. Funny looking back at those things.

I have the first basketball beckett with Jordan on the cover. I always wondered if that was worth anything...?

Man, that thing was selling for $20 nearly 20 years ago. It's got to be worth a bit more than that now, I would imagine.

Nice! I remember buying it at big card show in like '91? It was $5, and that was the only thing Jordan at the time I could afford (I was 12 years old). Glad I put it in a page, it’s still nice. I have a stack of those old Legends Magazines too, those still collectable?

That I don't know. I was 13 when that first Beckett Basketball came out and, in my teenage ultimate wisdom, I decided I was going to wait for Issue #2 with David Robinson on the cover. I still have it but....it isn't Jordan.

Haha I was kind of the same. I was a big Robinson fan so I bought that one too. I still have it as well but I never put it in plastic so its not as nice as the Jordan. One of the few basketball cards I have in my PC is a Hoops RC IP Auto of Mr. Robinson. Its in a 3/4 screw down right next to my '89 UD Griffey. Those were my two absolute favorite cards in the 90's. I don't think I'll ever get rid of either of those.

Ahh, the memories those two cards bring back. Never had the Griffey but I paid $30 for the Robinson back in the day. I had to mow a lot of lawns to get that baby. Still got it, though!

Yup! Those were pretty much the flagship's of my collection back then. I traded a handful of '89 Donruss errors for the Griffey at Frank & Son's. The Robinson was a birthday present that I had to pay half of. I actually had the thing on lay-away for a few months at the LCS, haha.
