I bought one and was a victim of bait and switch. A nice, bright transparency on Ebay (from Topps Vault) was a dark mess when I got it and was also a different pose than the one I bought. I complained but the only option they gave was said to send it back as they could not send the correct one. I would have been out shipping and some other BS cost so I kept it but they really pissed me off.

1958 Topps Vault Mantle/Aaron World Series Batting Foes.
I'm very pleased with mine. And even looks great in hand. Especially along side a '58 card...

If the image is negative it's called a negative. If the image is positive, it's called a transparency. Other than the positive/negative part, they are the same thing used for the same purpose. Some professional photographers prefer making photos from negatives, some prefer making photos from transparencies. It's a matter of personal taste.
The reason Topps calls the transparencies negatives in the titles is because they know most people haven't heard of photographic transparencies but know what are negatives. Notice in the description Topps calls them transparencies. As a collector, I prefer transparencies because the positive images are better for looking at. Negatives might be neat as artifacts, but don't make great viewing. Last edited by drc; 07-06-2009 at 02:05 AM.
