How to UNDERSTAND current Topps cards

[insidethewrapper]

Topps is a great investment. I just got a 2015 Topps BB Set for Christmas at Target for around $ 50, I bought a 1988, 1989 and 1990 set for $ 5.00 each.

I have a full Fleer run 1959 to 2007. That includes a bunch of logo, patch, cloth and other weird sets from the 60s and 70s, as documented on the Fleer Sticker Blog.

For Topps I have kept buying the base sets and any traded sets to keep the full run, 48 forward, going

For a diversion I have also done all the Heritage sets and updates. Up to 2011 I also did the Heritage variations like I did with the older Topps base sets, but then the planned scarcity just got too crazy. I think the Heritage sets are fun, especially if you collected their older counterparts

I collected the initial Donruss, Upper Deck and Sportflics sets, but did not continue with them

I highly recommend the Heritage sets...perfect for vintage collectors to get old designs with new players. Of course i am biased as i sell exclusively heritage.

I have always said Heritage is always my favorite brand of the year and in he 15 or so years of Heritage, Topps has one a good job keeping the brand going.

Could there be improvements? Of course, but overall -- Heritage brings back the memories of the original with today's players and a few inserts and autographs featuring the older player -- including in many cases, those retired players who never signed before
