It is as if Topps is admitting they can't design anything original anymore, so why bother?LennyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14765605409362661004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-1163532091432260332006-11-14T14:21:00.000-05:002006-11-14T14:21:00.000-05:00First, let me say, I love your blog. Good reading....First, let me say, I love your blog. Good reading. Good laughs. Often insightful ruminations on the industry. But I gotta draw a line here. Topps A&G is near and dear to my heart. Allow me to clarify for you the inclusion of these non-baseball folk in this set. It's a harken-back-to-the-original N28, N29 and N43 sets, of which the baseball players accounted for approximately 1/4 of the set. See, all of the original sets were the "Champions of the World" sets. As you obviously know, A&G did other sets as well. Topps is merely staying true to the originals (much like they did with the Turkey Red sets including past presidents). As for your pointing out they could have included better presidents, no arguement here.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the great work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
