1987 Donruss Opening Day


I've always wondered about this set. Donruss issued these, called Opening Day, but I never thought before now to check and see if they were telling the truth. I guess the horrible wine color through me off.

Well shit if they weren't. 

Ok, wait a minute. We had Orlando Mercado? Terry Harper? Where was I? Hell, where were they? They never appeared on Tigers cards again.

So here are the 1987 Donruss Opening Day Detroit Tigers:
209 Orlando Mercado
210 Darrell Evans
211 Larry Herndon
212 Jack Morris
213 Chet Lemon
214 Mike Heath
215 Darnell Coles
216 Alan Trammell
217 Terry Harper
218 Lou Whitaker
269 Team Checklist

Are you kidding me? Wow.....
