I'll pick up a modern pack of Topps here and there and I like when I get cards like these in the packs........it's not like getting a new T206 in the mail or anything, but sort of fun in its own way.

After seeing that Gypsy Queen Pujols I wanted to laugh. They should have at least tried to make it look like a Gypsy Queen card by using a more sepia type of image. I did like the 56 Topps style card of Cobb.
Overall, I figure that the attempts to recreate the vintage look isn't too bad. It might actually get collectors interested in the "real" part of the hobby. I shouldn't bash or look down upon modern material collectors. To each their own.

In 2007 Topps did a Turkey Red themed set, It's what got me back into collecting. More so the Red Bordered Parallels.

I like them, some more than others.
2009 upper deck Goudey is directly responsible for my turn to prewar. More specifically because my ebay searches for 2009 goudey reveal original pre war Goudey. I collected the 2009 UD Goudey Base Set, then 2009 Topps A&G Base set, 2009 A&G mini parallel with various backs and frames. By the time I finished those, I had picked up a 33 Goudey Travis Jackson and a T205 Merkle just to say I had one. Then I caught the pre war bug and stopped "wasting my money on modern crap" ![]() |

I think this was a great idea but don't understand why they left the hole in the plastic over the auto. They changed it the next year .
