2016 Leaf Babe Ruth Bat card

[packs]

I enjoy the Topps Heritage sets they put out now. It's always a throw back style with modern players. The Harper 63 Topps style card is awesome. When the two mix together the right way you get really nice cards.

These are from what's actually a pretty nice set. I got mine in a blaster type box from Target. Obviously the bat cards were the hook, and at the original price of $30 I wasn't all that interested. But at the closeout price of maybe 12 or 15 I figured why not? I didn't get a bat card, but I did get a nice card set and some "inserts" 100 cards, if I remember it right, all of Ruth.

I'm thinking that might eventually get a few people interested in prewar in general, although most won't get past the lottery ticket aspect of it.

I do too. My only gripe is that the first set, with the current players in the '52 design, came out in 2001 - so the current set will be using the design of 49 years ago. If only they had waited a year it would have been an even 50 years, and Topps could have been able to market them as "today's players in the classic designs of 50 years ago."
