I found these two NFL cards in the shoe box. I wish I could remember how I got them and wish I had more NFL cards from the 1980’s

Singletary was the prototype middle linebacker. He was an intense, ferocious, and relentless leader. He had these intense and fiery wide open eyes (almost like he had super vision). He won a Super Bowl in ‘85 with the Bears and was enshrined into the NFL HOF in 1998.

Pepper Johnson was a brute force inside and the brains of the defense. Lawrence Taylor and Carl Banks wreaked havoc on the edges and Pepper was the steady dependable presence. I remember being a youngin’ watching the Giant games and hearing Peppers name, but his Jersey had T. Johnson which would confuse me-why isn’t it P? His first name is Thomas and Pepper was just a cool nickname.

These belonged to my Granddaddy, whom passed away in 2020 from a massive heart attack. This was his, and my mama gave them to me. He was a huge Dale Earnhardt fan, and this was part of his Deal Earnhardt PC. My Grandaddy was a police office for many years, and my mama told me that he cried the day Dale Earnhardt died. I hope that he would like how I am taking care of his things.

One of my favorite things about Elvis, that we have in common is that he served with the U.S. Army in Germany.
Have a great day!🤝

Flair Legacy parallels are one of the best 90’s inserts/parallels. Along with PMG, Rubies, and Credentials, they are from a high-end product and are super clean in their design and look and are all numbered. There were usually three of each (row 0, row 1, and row 2, each with slightly different pictures and design elements. But they all look clean and feel like a premium product.

Flair cards were super premium and expensive when I was a kid. They didn’t even come in “packs”. They came in little individual boxes with cello wrapping. I never pulled a legacy personally, but did pull some good inserts. Happy to have this legacy parallel of one of my favorite players of that era.
