1986 Memphis Chicks Silver #NA

Type: Limited Set

Acquired: Bought Online

I really don't have a lot of info on this card it looks like it was part of a minor league team set for the Memphis Chicks that was released in 1986 by Time Out Sports. This is one of my favorite cards because it shows Bo off in his Chicks uniform right before he was called up by the Royals and became a superstar! I have another one of these cards with a gold border on it. I don't know how many of each cards was produced or why they offered color variants, but it is a very cool card with a nice layout.

1988 Star Limited Set #2

Type: Limited Set

Acquired: Bought At Card Show

STAR card sets are not my favorite to collect. There are so many "limited" sets that were put out in the late 80s & early 90s that it is hard to keep them straight. Every now and then, I do discover some of these cards in the bargain bins at card shows and I will pick them up if they are cheap. The borders are kind of plain and the backs lack a lot of color and style that other card companies did so well at the time. This card however, features Bo in his minor league Memphis Chicks uniform and recaps his stats from those early years. These two aspects alone make it one of my favorite STAR cards ever produced!

Acquired: Purchased at Show

Anything that features Bo in his Memphis Chicks uniform must become part of my collection. No matter the price, I will purchase these cards! I was happy to add this STAR '88 card to my collection for under a buck. I don't have the rest of this set, but I am continuously on the lookout for it!
