2017 Topps Gallery Collectors Box (Stopping at one)
2017 Topps Gallery Collectors Box (Stopping at one)
Got a good deal for 3 of the Collector Boxes on eBay, decided to rip one... and am stopping there. Breakdown:
The Expressionists: (1) Corey Seager
Masterpiece: (2) Don Mattingly and Bo Jackson
Gallery Heritage (a.k.a. 1951 Bowman): (2) Corey Kluber and Jose Abreu
Hall of Fame Gallery: (4) Ken Griffey Jr., Randy Johnson, Willie McCovey, and Tim Raines
Private Issue /250: (3) Buster Posey, Lewis Brinson, and Ian Happ
Green Parallel /99: (1) Charlie Blackmon
And now the autos....
First pack right off the bat got a....... Eduardo Rodriguez base auto. Not bad, but as others have said on here not exactly the auto I'm looking, but I'll take it. BTW the two I got are both sticker autos.
However the second one I saw halfway through and it looked like a parallel so I decided to save it for last, boy am I glad I did because this baby popped out.
/25, I'd say that's a good way to end the box. (The marks on the scan don't give the card justice, looks nice in person)
Overall Score I'll give it 3/5, fun break with good player parallels, my biggest problem are the inserts, most of them look like re-runs of previous years (Is that just me or does anyone agree?)
Thanks for looking and reading
