Why would anyone choose that set to be the one that they would want to get completely signed?

While I sort of agree with you, in terms of autographs, the 1987 Topps set takes a sharpie exceptionally well and the set is filled with waist up portraits and head shots. So from a pictorial perspective it's a good set for 'graphing.

Additionally, since it was so grossly overproduced, there was no shortage of them lying around when heading out to get IP autographs. Just a guess, but there may be more signed 1987 Topps cards than any other just because…

But yeah, it is a butt-ugly design.

Gotcha! That makes sense as far as having lots of waist up portraits and head shots... Thanks for the explanation.

looks like the OP was correct: this seller never sent the card!
