Card Identification Forum

Does anyone want to take a stab at listing this set? I've always considered it 86, Beckett lists it as 87. It has a bunch of boxers, golfers, track and field, soccer players, etc. A bit out of my knowledge base to identify soccer teams...

If Beckett considers it a 1987 set I would lean that way unless the company themselves specifically state 1986 as the release year.

I don't see a copyright on the card itself, but if it had some sort of packaging, which said copyright 1986, I can understand why you'd call it that. That said, Most of the Donruss issues from 1983 to the late 90s had the previous year on them as the copyright (so the 1983 Donruss set all have (c) 1982 on them. Like Corky, I would lean toward listing it as 1987.

I can take a stab at a checklist, though I've probably mixed a few of the Booster set with the main game.  The copyfright on all the boxes is 1986, so I'm not sure who/why it was determined to be a 1987 release.  It seems most of the other Question of Sport issues are listed as the year after their copyright also.

I should have a checklist for this set on the way from a buddy in England shortly.  I also have checklists available for the 1994 & 1996 QoS sets and just requested set adds here for them.

I got the checklist yesterday, have a bit of formatting to do for upload here, but should have it uploaded today.  Set is now available here: https://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/182131/1987-BBC-A-Question-of-Sport-UK
