2001 Topps Vintage Inserts

[deweyinthehall]

Not sure I agree that's a 'problem' - all I see with a vintage card marked in some way as Topps has been doing for the last 15 years or so is a defaced card.

It may not be a huge deal with that 1989 common, but when I go on COMC looking for vintage singles from the 1970s and 1960s it never ceases to amaze me how many Topps has vandalized in the name of the 'chase'.

There are plenty of cards which have never and will never be given the stamp so I don't see that as a problem. My point, which I made to Topps in 1992 and still holds today is,,, without a way to ID the older card came from a current year pack, well your 1989 common *which one of my friends pulled in 1991* is worth 5 cents but with a stamp it would be a few dollars. And you got to have the value to do those inserts
