Welcome to my new Saturday series, Eighties Alphabetically. I've previously done Sixties Saturday and Seventies Saturday, showing Cubs team sets from those decades.
Eighties Saturday doesn't have the same alliteration as those other two, so I decided to change things up a bit and go with Eighties Alphabetically. That gives me my alliteration.
So what will I be doing?
Each Saturday I'll show a brand's Cubs cards from the 1980s, and I do the brand names in alphabetical order. I've got cards from 94 different brands, so this will take almost two years. I may stretch some of the bigger sets into a couple different posts, too.
I won't be doing the cards from the big brands, either. There will be no Topps, Fleer, Donruss, Upper Deck, Score, or Pacific, since I've already done those in my Comparing the Main Brands posts.
Some of the brands have just one card, some have cards from almost every year of the decade, and most fall somewhere in between.
And which brands, you ask, will I be doing?
Here are the 94 that will be featured, starting next week, in alphabetical order:

Oh, I was so very much hoping you would do an 80's Saturday series! This will take me right back to my childhood! I can't wait! (I apologize for the blatant overuse of exclamation points. I'm just so excited!)
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll have a great trip down memory lane. And you can use as many exclamations points as you'd like.. you're a math teacher, not an English teacher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DeleteThis got me curious and I went through the Dodgers I have for '80s brands (excluding the major flagship sets). I was up to 100 by 1987. Part of that reason is all the Fleer box sets issued in the late '80s, are you doing those? Also, no O-Pee-Chee?
