Uncut Treasures: Rediscovering Rare Sheets From a 1982 Baseball Cards Magazine Ad

I ran across an advertisement from Stephan R. Juskewycz in the Spring 1982 issue of Baseball Cards Magazine offering some cool and scarce uncut sheets, so I tried to find them and tracked down six of seven.

1981 Donruss Baseball Uncut Sheet

These are probably the most common sheets on Juskewycz’s list, and they were also the cheapest in 1982. Here’s an example of one of the sheets.

1981 Granny Goose Uncut Sheet

The advertisement initially motivated me to write a dedicated piece on the 1981 Granny Goose set, but this was the one uncut sheet I couldn’t track down!

1977 Burger King Yankees Uncut Sheet

The advertisement said it was a sheet for a single set, and I found that REA sold a lot of 10 progressive proof uncut sheets back in 2008 for $588.

Heritage also sold this complete one in October 2024, along with a 1983 Topps Gaylord Perry Peanut Farm uncut sheet for $750.

1977 Cloth Stickers Uncut Sheet

REA sold this sheet with two complete sets for $630 in the fall of 2019.

1977 Cloth Stickers Puzzle Cards Uncut Sheet

REA failed to sell this example in the fall of 2018 when its reserve was $300.

1971 Topps Coin Proofs Uncut Sheet

Lelands offered this example in 2004, but the sheet failed to meet its reserve.

1969 Topps Uncut Proof Sheet of 9 1969 Deckle Edge Cards

I wrote about this sheet back in August 2024.

Happy collecting!

  1. Huge fan of the 1981 Granny Goose set. I almost picked up another copy for my collection last night, but the bidding went a little crazy in the final minute. Never seen an uncut sheet, but I would imagine it would command big money… especially if it contained the Revering card.

  2. Indeed, I suspect the advertised piece was a single sheet with seven sets of 15 on it, and it was $650 all the way back in ’82! Though, a lot of sheets have been cut up over the years, this one may have suffered a similar fate.
