Here are a couple 80s cards that I finally got around to mailing off TTM. They were signed by Rick Peters in black Sharpie, and turned out nicely. The above 1984 Topps is a nice enough card. I don't put a lot of love on the 84 set, but it's not too bad. It's just not the first card I look for when I got for 80s stuff.
A set that I do look for is 1981 Topps. This is just a cool design, and I have gotten quite a few signed. Nowhere near the amount of 1987s that I have gotten, but I do have a bunch of 81s.
Peters (b. 1955) played in the majors from 1979 to 1981, 1983 and 1986 for the Tigers and A's. He had 255 hits, 2 home runs and a .277 batting average. He finished 6th in the 1980 AL Rookie of the Year voting.
I mailed to Peters on February 4 and got the cards back on March 28, for a 52-day TAT.
