I follow the modern baseball card hobby a bit. It seems the only products which sell are the "retro" themed and really shiny cards of high school players who were just drafted. Everything else pretty much falls by the wayside. Next month Topps is releasing "National Chicle" which has both Diamond Stars and Batter-Up designs. Heck, last year an attempt at Obak was made (a pretty pathetic one if that) by a minor manufacturer.

Here's a Ruth card from the 2007 UD Masterpieces. Neat card, I think. I like Ruth's stuff when he was a Sox pitcher about 10x better than his Yankee stuff.

The Upper Deck Masterpieces are very nice, and very affordable baseball cards. The renditions and Hall of Fame checklist are great.

I love the Topps T206 cards but think they could have did a better job on the Gehrig card.

From 2009 Allen and Ginter I pulled the rarest card. First day of release I bought 2 boxes like I do every yr. This is the only modern cards I buy. I just think they are neat. I have no idea what its worth but I am sure it is a few grand or more. A&G is probably the best retro set out there IMO.
