2003 Topps Vintage Embossed and All-Time Fan Favorites Embossed - Tough to Find
 
I collect Johnny Bench and his 2003 Embossed cards are next to impossible to find....I assume some people dont even know they have them......any thoughts on where to look?? Thanks!

I Really liked the all time fan favorites when they came out. I checked and unfortunately I don't have Bench unless it's in one of the boxes of regular fan favorites I have, when I get a chance I will check and see.

Here are a few that I did have handy.

You need to set up a favorites search to email you when one comes up on eBay.

There was a 2003 Fan Favorites embossed refractor that sold 12/5 for 5.50.

They will pop up in time, however without adding some warning alarms it's just a crapshoot that will be searching at the right time.

No idea on quantity inserted, but guessing fairly low quantity.
I scooped up a number of Garvey buybacks shortly after issue when he was included. Besides fighting others for them, a lot of times they just are not appreciated.

I think that year had the actual embossing that was nearly impossible to see without catching the card at the right angle in the right light.
Nice idea, but I bet more than a few of those will eventually get lost in a sea of similar vintage cards that were not embossed.

They end up on COMC every once in a while and COMC denotes them.

I have a 72 Aaron leaders card (on eBay now)....probably had it a few years before I realized what it was...no idea what it is worth either...but haven't had any bites (or offers) at my ridiculous asking price!
