For many, nostalgia remains the driving force behind baseball card collecting, and that’s how we arrived at the idea of One-Sheet Collections.
It’s a simple concept with infinite possibilities.
Take a single nine-pocket sheet and a reasonable $100 budget, and build a nine-card collection with a unifying theme.
This time around we focus on memorable Team USA cards in Topps and Topps Traded products during the 1980s and 1990s.
During the 1998 season, a case could be made that the two most sought after cards in the hobby were the 1985 Topps Mark McGwire Rookie and the 1992 Topps Traded Nomar Garciaparra Rookie, and both cards feature the player pictured as a member of Team USA.
However, those two are far from the only notable names to be included as Team USA players during that time, so sit back and enjoy this trip down memory lane.
