New 52 Topps book
 
Just curious who all knows about this book? I found it on a 52 Topps baseball site on face book but due to me residing in Canada, shipping is crazy expensive.

For those that already own a copy, I am curious how you like it? From the FB feedback, it sounds like one to get.

I got it the other day, only paged through it so far. The quality is very good but it's not too in depth. I'm treating it as an art book, which is what I expected.

Thanks for letting me know, Dave. :)

I just got a copy of the Cracker Jack book. I found it very informative.

I haven't seen the 52 set book yet, but the thing I enjoyed the most was reading about the post-baseball lives of the players. May not be as compelling for a contemporary set, but for the T206 and Cracker Jack it showed that a great deal of research was done.

That's what these are, stories about the players on the cards. You won't find much about the set itself, but you probably already know all that by now anyway.
