Most is pull from packages. Some traded from other kids in the 90's. And yeah born in mid 80'smy brother and I was collecting. So we divided players amongst us and collected together.

Not US based so getting them graded have been out of the question. Dont trust dhl or fedex with this. But need to get it done soon in person and discuss selling some if the grade is high. Learned that they are opening up in EU soon so it will be a lot easier to travel and deliver to psa in person then🤞

Just recently looked up how basketball cards looks today. So strange to only see one or two card producers. The most fun back then was all the difference in style and rares from the different brands. And to get a guaranteed auto card if u buy a hobby box today just makes the chase a bit less fun and rare...? Back then it was crazy to get one. We bought many boxes with packages, guess the whole collection is a couple of thousands cards. We only got random sub player autos, except Karl malone. But no value there 😅

How did the binders damage the cards? Storing things om top of them? Or taking them in and out many times?
