Recently, Burnell e-mailed to ask me if I was still in need of the Topps Stickers Phillies team sets from the mid-1980s through 1990. I responded that I definitely still needed these elusive Phillies "cards" since single stickers from these sets are rarely seen for sale, and the multi-player stickers make collating complete team sets a challenge. He e-mailed me back that he (a) had complete team sticker sets to send my way, (b) he was adding in "a few other cards" from my want lists and (c) he didn't need anything in return.
Burnell's package arrived last week and here's a rundown of the sticker portion of the bounty:
1985 Topps Stickers (entire Phillies team set) - Included all 16 stickers featuring Phillies including the multi-player stickers.
1986 Topps Stickers (entire Phillies team set) - Included all 10 stickers featuring Phillies including the multi-player stickers.
1987 Topps Stickers (entire Phillies team set) - Included all 12 stickers featuring Phillies including the multi-player stickers. I was also happy to add a never before seen (by me) Kent Tekulve Phillies sticker.
1988 Topps Stickers (entire Phillies team set) - Included all 13 stickers featuring Phillies including the multi-player stickers. Also included the three Phillies Super Star Stickercards which were used as backing for the stickers.
1989 Topps Stickers (entire Phillies team set) - Included all 11 stickers featuring Phillies including the multi-player stickers. Also included the Juan Samuel Super Star Stickercard which was used as backing for the stickers.
1990 Topps Stickers (entire Phillies team set) - Included all 11 stickers featuring Phillies including the multi-player stickers. Also included the Von Hayes Super Star Stickercard which was used as backing for the stickers.
But wait, there's more! I'm still in the process of sorting and crossing off the stacks of other Phillies cards Burnell sent me, most of which are of the relic or autograph variety. There's a preview of what else was in the package in the photo above along with the stack of the complete run of Phillies from the Topps Stickers sets from 1985 to 1990. I don't want to rush through these cards, so I'll have a future post (or two) showing off the newest additions to my collection thanks to Burnell's generosity.

These stickers really are a pain to accumulate - this Burnell truly is a generous man!
But wait there's more! I've got two more posts drafted to show off additional cards Burnell sent along.
