Selling an Inherited Collection

[Northwoods]

Thanks for the replies. When I find some time I'll go through everything and try to come up with a list to give everybody a better idea of what all is there. Stay tuned. Thank you.

I had a chance to go through everything over the weekend and put together the attached 2 page list. Image file 1 is page 1 and Image file 2 is page 2.

Any additional advice based on this inventory listing would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

These are the ones you should be looking for:

https://www.psacard.com/psasetregist...omposition/260

https://www.psacard.com/psasetregist...position/12875

Aside from those, you're looking for 1984 Don Mattingly RCs, 1990 Topps partial blackless errors ( https://forums.collectors.com/discus...n-to-my-theory ), and some other oddball errors or inserts. Again, you probably want someone from either here or Blowout to meet up with you and scan your collection. Just ranking them by sets isn't really that informative since condition is so important to overall value. And an experienced person will know what to look for in your piles of mostly junk.

1981 topps is joe montana's rookie year. that's a great card if it's in good shape. 1984 is elway/marino rookies, also great cards. 1986 if you have jerry rice rookie is a nice score.

for hockey, topps is always the ugly sister next to OPC. but anything bobby orr or any other HOF are worthwhile cards (especially rookies like dryden or other canadiens).

Thanks for the information. I know there's at least 2 of those 1981 Topps Joe Montanas. That other reply in this thread listed some links with specific cards by player that I can look for. That's the hard part, now knowing exactly what I should be looking for.

Don't forget Gretzky and Lemieux from 1979 onwards. Some of those can go for nice money too. Same with Jordan, Kobe, Bird, Magic and a few other basketball cards.

Thank you very much!! That at least gives me a starting point to start looking for specific cards.

I do not have any unopened boxes or packs.
