I remember this selling for way above cover price....
I had a subscription when that issue was released and I never received mine. I was ticked. Wrote a letter and I think they sent me an extra copy of the issue before that one (Griffey cover). Wouldn't be the last time Beckett showed incompetence

I have the Beckett Plus Texas Rangers "Young Guns" cover.
I believe they only made 1500 of them.

From a june 1985 "baseball card" magazine:
84 fleer puckett $1, clemens .09
84 donruss mattingly $1.50
52 topps set $7800 (mantle 1,100)

I made the same complaint to Chris Olds a dozen times. Falls on deaf ears, content is online now in the news section. My favorite was the features on individual players that where normally a couple pages long.

Cardsone? I know I get one of these things every now and then probably because at some point I bought something from them on Ebay

I have a bunch of old sportscard magazines and have written articles for Tuff Stuff. I'll post some later tonight.

I remember when '90 Leaf came out at .99 cents a pack and vowing to never pay that much for a pack of cards!
