This was the year that I started collecting cards as a 12 yo. It was probably also around this time that cards started being way overprinted, so none of the cards are worth anything.
My brothers and I actually collected this whole set, and I still have it for nostalgia. I had to go to a local card dealer to buy the Oakland A's Leaders card (Canseco and McGwire) and Greg Swindell (Indians pitcher) to complete the set. Opening wax packs and rack packs were the joy of that summer.
Another card dealer about a year later told me that I should have just bought the whole set and saved money, but to that young, financially-ignorant kid, it just wasn't the same.
