1982 Topps un-cut sheet


I've always wanted one of these uncut sheets.  This is my first one, and it happens to include the Wallach rookie card.  I could be wrong, but I remember these things being wildly expensive as a kid. I picked this one up for less than $20 shipped.  Granted, it's pretty beat up, but that still struck me as very cheap.  However that seemed to be around the going rate for these.

Framing it isn't going to be as inexpensive.  My early estimates indicate that this thing will never see the inside of a frame, and even if I did one day splurge, it's far too big (about 43 x 29) to get the ever important stamp of approval from my wife to be hung on a wall in the house.  And it's not all on her, I have an area, but it's pretty full already and I don't really think I can make space for this.  It could be destined for a spot in the garage with my childhood NHL posters, thumbtacked to a wall.

Some of cool cards on the sheet are below.  Including the Expo killer Rick Monday two slots below Wallach, and some poor kid listed as the Future Star third baseman on the Expos rookie card between Terry Francona and Bryn Smith.

1991 Post Cereal Uncut Sheet






This is an uncut sheet of two 1991 Post Tim Wallach cards. I vividly remember when these cards were being put into boxes of Post Cereal as a kid.  I never pulled a Wallach.  We always had Raisin Bran my house and once in a great while my brother and I would get to add a box of Fruity Pebbles to the cart, so I acutally ended up with quite a few cards from this set, just no Wallach.  To this day I don't have a Wallach from this set, just the uncut sheet pictured above (an ebay acquisition).
