But a sharp one with all of the original gloss is a thing of beauty.
I just sold off a number of my Topps Heritage master sets and SSP cards to assemble a 53 Bowman color set in vg/ex condition. I am still trying to upgrade some of the cards to ex/ex plus, but I ran out of money for the moment. As for the 61s if the All-Star cards at the end of the set look crummy unless they're ex-mint or better.
