Fi...I am disappointed in Archives for two reasons. First is the commonly talked about abundance of reused photos in the set. Secondly, and worse in my book, is the overuse of the 1972 design in 2013 and the choices of the other three designs in general. The 72s shouldn't have been both the minis in flagship and in this set. The 82, 85, and 90 are not exactly designs that I love, but even if you like them they are too close together in time. They should have used 1 set from the 50s, skipped the 60s since Heritage is in that decade, 1 from the 70s, 1 from the 80s, and 1 from the 90s. I would have chosen 1959, 1978, 1985, and 1991 for the designs, but that's just me. hiflewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07128126188366882765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6893787306319909907.post-20427545399317333772013-06-05T06:38:06.774-04:002013-06-05T06:38:06.774-04:00Yeah, I saw that Benito auto.

I'd be lying if I said that I wouldn't be buying a few rack packs to test my luck. Those gold foil cards are sharp as well, I like the serial numbering on the front. The Derek Holland card is my favorite so far from the '82 set.<br /><br />I didn't think that I'd like the stickers (pulled one from a blaster as well), but that one looks great, whatever blogger you're sending that to will definitely dig it.Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439278650702057885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6893787306319909907.post-3120752551882053822013-06-04T23:19:03.417-04:002013-06-04T23:19:03.417-04:00Would love to pick up that Rickey for my Henderson...Would love to pick up that Rickey for my Henderson collection. arpsmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15906792508761334151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6893787306319909907.post-62834361219036938702013-06-04T23:04:51.191-04:002013-06-04T23:04:51.191-04:00I guess I know what I'm buying this weekend.
