First new Yount of the Year - On the Radar - 2022 Topps Throwback Thursday

 

What a surprise this morning to check out Topps.com and see that Robin is featured as one of the three new cards in this weeks Throwback Thursday offering.  I'm still working on a end of year post for the blog, but I had to throw this out on the webs first.  Anyways this card is being offered along with a pair of juniors (Vlad and Tatis) till next Thursday.  You can pick a set up for $14.99 at Topps.com

https://www.topps.com/cards-collectibles/online-brands/2022-throwback-thursday-set-4-1983-football.html


The first 12 cards this year are featured in the 1983 Topps Football design.  So I guess now I have to start the 2022 Checklist page.

On the Radar - 2021 Topps Chrome Update Yount Checklist

 I was working on my Year in Review post and low and behold Topps snuck another release out.  Topps Chrome Update is suppose to officially be today, tomorrow, who know's exactly when it will hit retail shelves, but Robin has a couple cards in the Platinum Players die-cut set and auto parallel.  No work on parallels for the cards, but it's Topps so I'm sure there will be some.  Here is the tentative checklist and I'll add parallels and serial numbering when that info becomes available.

2020 Topps - Decades Best Chrome Gold

Year: 2020
Card Manufacturer: Topps
Set: Flagship
Card Number: DBC-49
Card Type: Insert Parallel Exclusive
Insert Set: Decades Best 
Parallel: Gold Chrome
Exclusive:  Series 1 Retail Tin Exclusive
Card Attributes: Serial Numbered
Serial Numbered: 39/50

I wasn't a huge fan of this insert.  But it's grown on me through the last couple year's.  But when you add chrome to the picture these cards are really nice.  These chrome versions of the Decades Best insert were only available in the Series 1 retail tins and the Gold parallel numbered to 50 were the only parallels.  I believe I picked this one up on COMC as well.  The scan really doesn't do this card justice.  And of course the card celebrates absolute dominance in the parts of the 80's.  He did get two MVP awards in the 80s.
