“ First trading cards were this set and I'm betting I'm not alone. ” -ShoTime


“ This set...and movie...are not that great, but integral to my card collecting life. Some of my earliest memories are of these cards. I know I have more somewhere in my storage unit, but I fear for their condition. The factory set, which this came from and I uploaded, is not actually in my collection...these cards belong to my brother, who got me started in the hobby and read me my first comic book at only five days old...a hobby I've never left, and contribute a great deal of my lexicon, love for science and reading towards. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I remember the 1989 Batman set and getting packs of them back then. I don't remember there being a "Complete Collector's Edition" though. The photos were pretty good and the type on the back was as well. But that bright yellow border, yuck! Maybe that's where the 1991 Fleer design came from?! I've just got to say this... Keaton is still my favorite movie Batman. ” -spazmatastic

“ I like the front border but the photo looks washed out. The back is great. I am a big fan of Batman, especially Michael Keaton's so this card is a plus for me but still can't bring myself to collect non sports cards. ” -davidhandberry

“ The best Batman movie ever made. ” -Brimose

“ Topps movie cards from the '80s....it doesn't get much better! ” -mkaz80

I have about 20 of these cards; some were from a pack I bought in '89, and others were from a collection that was given to me.  I keep them in a shoe box unsleeved, to provide a baseline of to compare how well pocket pages and penny  sleeves protect my baseball cards.   Lesson learned: sleeves and pocket pages work!
