My 1st National as well. My wife and daughter stayed home while I went with my 2 boys. I saw the Babe Ruth of HOF wives while at the show. She was walking and holding an infant - no more than 2 months old while walking behind her husband and toddler. I told her that I needed to take a picture to send to my wife and told her that I admired her dedication. She rolled her eyes and said that it wasn't her 1st or second choice to be there. The husband, in Reds garb, then said "we're from Cincinnati, it was a family trip". My wife sent a text back telling me "good for her. Still not interested". I can't complain. She tolerates my hobby/addiction. I guess it could be worse.

Great pickups BTW - congrats!

Allen & Ginter has full-sized relic cards meaning the card is the standard 2.5 x 3.5



Ginter also has framed mini relic cards which is a full size card frame holding a miniature relic card.



For years the only relic cards in Allen & Ginter were the mini relics, which most collectors prefer because they are unique and cool looking. Recently Topps has been replacing a lot of the mini relics with the relatively boring full-sized relics which I presume is a cost cutting measure since they look much simpler and cheaper to make.

I bought a box of 2011 A & G and was very impressed. This is a very cool product.
