  • Damaged Card HOF #3: Ruined Rice Rookie


    1986 Topps #161

    Creased. Faded. Rounded corners. Chipped edges. Does it get any better than this?

    I recently purchased a binder of vintage football cards that contained some of the biggest names in gridiron history: Terry Bradshaw, Walter Payton, Steve Largent, Sonny Jurgenson, Dick Butkus, Roger Staubach, Jim Otto, and Joe Namath.

    But without a doubt, the Jerry Ricerookie card was the deciding factor in my purchase. Don't get me wrong. The other cards are excellent additions to my vintage binder of HOFers. However... it's not often I add a card to my Damaged Card PC... especially one of this magnitude.

    One of these days, I'll write up a Top 5 Damaged Card post and I'm pretty sure this card will be in it.

    Happy Birthday Jerry! Go Packers and Seahawks! And have a happy Sunday! Sayonara!

    OMG! Fujisan,

    That's just awful. It brings tears to my eyes to see that. I know everyone has their own way of collecting, when I come across a card that even has a slight dent in it or a auto that's been smeared, out it goes! What's so funny is that the fact that my daughters boyfriend "Brett" will take my cards deemed unsuitable in my collection. LOL! That's why we get along so fine together. That's what makes this hobby so fun; "Collect What Makes You Happy"!

    Arogato Fujisan,

    I am easy, I collect any and all NFL cards. Individual players I really enjoy are Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Matt Ryan, Andrew Luck, RGIII, and Russell Wilson. My passion is Favre rookie cards and vintage cards.
