Like when your perfectly designed cards start scuffing after one weekend, or your glossy piece looks great until fingerprints turn it into a crime scene. So here’s the plain-English guide. What each finish is, what […]
The 1980s took Topps baseball cards from “kind of scarce and kind of messy” to “printed by the truckload.” You can see the shift in the printing math (726 cards becomes 792), in print run estimates (hundreds of thousands per card becomes millions), and in modern PSA population data (what collectors actually bother grading).
