Description

1984 Fleer Update is a 132-card, Hobby-exclusive, update set. This set was Fleer's first attempt at a Topps Traded-like update set and like Topps Traded, the cards were distributed exclusively through Fleer's Hobby dealer network and only available as a factory set. The set was quite popular with collectors, and, apparently, the print run was relatively short (believed to be around 12,000 sets).

The key XRCs in this set are Roger Clemens, Dwight Gooden, Kirby Puckett, and Bret Saberhagen. The XRC class coupled with the small print run, have made '84 Fleer Update one of the landmark products of the 80s.

NOTE: Collectors are advised to be careful if purchasing single cards of Clemens, Darling, Gooden, Puckett, Rose, or Saberhagen as these specific cards have been counterfeited. These fakes are blurry when compared to the real cards and have noticeably different printing dot patterns under 8X or greater magnification. Collectors should be advised to buy either professionally graded cards or a sealed factory set. Also, 1984 Fleer Update cards (genuine ones) are notoriously tough to find perfectly centered.
