'83 looked lazy. They basically mirrored the '82 design. Voted '84.

'86. That blue boarder tho.

I liked the simplicity in '87 but the black boarders made it impossible to pull a mint card out of the pack.

The first series was janky as shit. But I fucking LOVED buying packs of them at Toys R Us as a kid.

Seeing that '88 Score card brings back memories of frayed edges and cards stuck together in those clear cellophane packs.

Pinnacle and Fleer Ultra were my favorite brands, buying packs like a junkie looking for inserts.
