Topps Heritage 51 Collection Box Break

By

A few weeks ago I dropped by my local card store (Triple Cards in Plano TX) and discussed the new Topps Heritage ’51 set.  The store had pre-sold its entire order and would be sold out upon delivery. Now, any time you have a guaranteed sell out as a dealer that is always a good problem to have.   A successful release helps to make up for some of bad products every dealer … [Read more...] about Topps Heritage 51 Collection Box Break

Heritage Minors 2015 Box Break/Review

By

The baseball card release calendar Topps has followed includes a few standards. Series One arrives just before players first report for spring training followed within a few weeks by Heritage and Opening Day. All three of those products do contain inserts like autographs and relics but are much more geared toward set builders rather than those looking for hits. And then … [Read more...] about Heritage Minors 2015 Box Break/Review

Topps to Create Heritage 51 Collection Set

By

Before they got the go-ahead to go all out in 1952, Topps dipped a toe in the water of baseball card production with its Red Black and Blue Back game card set in 1951.  Now, the company is tipping its cap to that first venture with 2015 Topps Heritage ’51 Collection, a 104-card offering to be sold as a boxed set later this fall. Each box, which will likely retail for … [Read more...] about Topps to Create Heritage 51 Collection Set

Ramblings: Stamped Buybacks, Autographs and Other Heritage Thoughts

By

For the past few years beginning with the 2008 Heritage set, Topps has bought back cards of the year they were honoring in that series, stamped them with gold foil and put them in packs. Now, I do realize it may be a bit sacrilegious to say those cards are a good thing (many don’t like them at all) but I believe they truly are. There are a couple of reasons I feel this … [Read more...] about Ramblings: Stamped Buybacks, Autographs and Other Heritage Thoughts

Heritage Minor League Baseball 2014 Box Break/Review

By

In some ways, Topps has some interesting dilemmas with their exclusive Minor League Baseball license. Among them are to work on creating innovative ideas to feature players which many fans may have barely heard of, if at all. While people who follow their favorite team’s organization or read Baseball America may keep up with prospects, many fans just do not have the time or … [Read more...] about Heritage Minor League Baseball 2014 Box Break/Review

Topps Heritage Box Break Fun But Could Be Even Better

By

I mention frequently how much I love the Heritage concept. Having collected all the original sets (and at one point being complete back till 1953) I have good memories of what it took to complete all of those. Nowadays, it would cost a great deal more money but in many ways the process is easier as thanks to many on-line tools such as eBay, COMC and countless other methods the … [Read more...] about Topps Heritage Box Break Fun But Could Be Even Better
