COMC Black Friday Haul #44
I'll admit I'm a bit fan of Topps Gallery from way back in the early days of the brand. 2017 marked the return of the set, which I was excited for, I was not excited that this was a Wal-Mart exclusive as this is a set that also begs to be in hobby shops. I love that Topps also commissioned artists for the set. It would have been easy for Topps to just run some Getty Images through some Photoshop filters to get a similar result, something I sure they've done, but Dan Bergren does a great job on this Yount piece. Add the marbly blue border for this parallel and it's a cardboard masterpiece. As I stated a few posts ago one of the best things about COMC is being able to find cards like this as they pop up for great prices, sometimes it's a waiting game. But it pays off.
