I've been going through my old baseball cards and I haven't been able to find any online price references so I was hoping to pick up a Becketts hard copy today. The only thing I could find online was an estimate site and Becketts site that only allows access on a per month fee basis.

Help is appreciated.

Check Barnes and Nobles or Borders magazine sections. Possibly even Kroger.

I've been going going through a box of mine per night with my 7 year old son...he loves it.

I stopped getting my monthly Beckett's in about 1997. When I first started doing the card guides Don Mattingly's rookie was the hot card and worth a whopping $3.50. The 1987 wood looking border Topps cards are interesting now because seemingly 1/3 of the cards are guys who now manage or managed in the past 10 years....except of course the Cubs Jamie Moyer. That same year had Tony LaRussa card as the A's manager and one of his veteran players that year also had a card for the A's....Dusty Baker. Nearly every Reds manager since 1970 to now had a Topps card that year. Sparky, Rose, Piniella, Davey Johnson, Knight, Boone, Narron, and Baker...just missed Tony Perez by a year and Pete Mckanin by a couple..same with McKeon. Dave Miley...not so much.

Don't even worry about a Beckett. You won't ever get the prices today that a Beckett has them listed for. Unfortunately, this is one hobby that has seen it's better days.

EBay is your Beckett. Beckett prices are worthless when it comes to selling your cards.
