Thank you for the response! What about the historical sets? Did Topps just look the other way because they weren't producing anything similar or was there some sort of exemption related to producing sets using the images older than a certain date? I don't recall ever seeing any airbrushing or hiding of team emblems on hats and jerseys for any of the various team sets and all time greats sets.
And on a slightly different topic, what led to TCMA producing the one team set in 1985 for the Tigres de Mexico? Where there any plans to do more Mexican sets?
