Grace was an up-and-coming player and he was selected over the Cubs two MVPs Ryne Sandberg and Andre Dawson.
Though a budding star, Grace was not well known to MSA, the company that produced the cards. The initial release had a picture of Vance Law on the Grace card. My card is the corrected version.
I've tried to find the error card but have had no luck. The Standard Catalog put a price of $3 on it, so I figured that it can't be that rare. But none of my usual haunts have the card.
J.J. Nissen? That's a new one to me!
ReplyDeleteYeah, this is a new one for me. Did Topps print this set for J.J. Nissen? I love these 1980s oddball sets!
ReplyDeleteNever heard of Nissen... but then again I'm on the West Coast. Best of luck tracking down the error card for your collection.
