I have been thinking about setting a stop date on my annual Topps set build. I was born in 1971 and was thinking 2021 might be a good stop date, 50 years after my birth. I am thinking I would rather build some of the 1950s and 60s sets plus the storage of all these sets is getting tough. I would love to retire in about 10 years and we have talked of downsizing the house post retirement and I am not sure how much space I will have to store my collection. No need to make a decision today but thought I would share what is on my mind.
Let's get to the cards! Once again Topps decided to dedicate an insert set to reprints, this year they are calling them the Iconic Card Reprints. I didn't mind these types of sets when they first came out but they are getting a little old and repetitive. This year there are a few pre-war cards and Bowman cards mixed in which helps a bit but a 50 card insert set with a lot of recycled reprints in Series 1 was a little much.
Here are the cards in all their glory along with the back of the first card:
If you are interested in a look back at other sets I have shared from 2019 Topps Series 1 you can link here:
150 Years of Professional Baseball
1984 Topps
Cactus League Legends and Grapefruit League Greats
Evolution and Revolution of the Game
The 1933 Delong Gehrig is so awesome! Didn't think twice about this set until about a year ago. I've been trying to add a card from that set to my collection ever since.
ReplyDeleteTrue story, I'm one of the people who have benefited from Dr. Ogbeifun Love Spell. Dr. Ogbeifun appeared in the middle of my life when all hope was lost. I gave up on life and thought the best way to care for my broken heart. I have several experiences with my husband who have been working with me for many years. I made up my mind to continue with my suicide before a strange spirit. Afterwards, Dr. Ogbeifun Temple, I reluctantly looked for and found testimonials and recommendations for him via his email. He answered and asked me to go away and take my life; he said that my case is solvable after consulting his Oracle. Well, here I am today thanking Dr. Ogbeifun for saving my life and bringing back my Husband. We are so happy today and happier than we have ever been. He also helped me stop my cardiac arrest problem. I am grateful for being among the people sharing this testimony.
