I love the 80s

Good stuff, guys. The Randy Johnson debut hat is especially nice.

This is probably my favorite early 1980s Giants pennant. Uncommon, but not exactly rare. Love the colors and reminds me of the orange pullover jerseys (maybe Oooribay or Mark S has one to show)?

Not orange, but hopefully this jet black pull-over fits the bill. Timing is spot-on (1982) and it doesn’t get much more “80s” than this. Frank Robinson’s Jersey as manager of the Giants in 1982. Gotta love that ‘80s vibe!

Nice, Mark! My first real memories of the Giants are with Robinson as the Manager. Here are some items that go with the patch (these are doubles for me... in case anyone is interested). The pennant is uncommon.

Eye candy…some 80s (and 90s) packs on display make me happy.

Yep, 80s are my childhood era. Fun to see all this stuff.

All this talk about the 1980s makes me want to watch MTV and rip open some packs.

I have some 1980s wax around as well, but no pictures handy.

Speaking of ripping 1980s wax, the 1981 Donruss video below is worth it (if you haven't already seen it).

Is it just me or has Giants Orange turned more Red recently?

Nice record, Cubman.

What could be more 1980s that a Go Go Joe Charboneau 45? I have it displayed with this really colorful advertising poster.

Those are great!

This has 80s “drawn” all over it Link to video below…

I just posted about wanting this 1982 NFL Properties Joe Montana pennant and the one person I know who owned it made it available to me. Very thankful. It is now on display with its trash can brother.

New 1980s arrival. Oooribay has the only other copy of this pennant that I have ever seen.

My uncle -- who opened the first card shop in our hometown of Bloomington, IN in the early '80s -- won a 1980 Topps complete set at a rural auction for $20 last fall, and gave it to me as a wedding present.

I pulled the Rickey RC, sent it to SGC, and it came back an 8. The others look to be the same shape, so it's a pretty sweet ROI.
