1982 Fleer Baseball Pack

1982 Fleer is a 660-card set. The set is in team order based upon standings from the previous season. Cards numbered 628 through 646 are special cards highlighting some of the stars and leaders of the 1981 season. The last 14 cards in the set (647-660) are checklist cards. The backs feature player statistics and a full-color team logo in the upper right-hand corner of each card.

'82 Fleer is probably best known for the number of errors that riddled the set. Some collectors believe that many of the errors (especially the "All Hrabosky" cards) were intentional and meant to capitalize of the buzz created by the "Craig Nettles" error card of the year before. However, the most famous (and valuable) error card in the set, the "reverse negative" of John Littlefield, was an honest mistake.

After issuing 1981 Fleer with a stick of gum in each pack, an appeals court ruled that Topps still had the exclusive right to market baseball trading cards packaged with gum, or as a stand-alone product. In lieu of gum, Fleer inserted a team logo sticker in each pack.

Notable Rookie Cards in this set include Cal Ripken Jr., Lee Smith, and Dave Stewart.
