A question and a possible group break.

My understanding is, that the base cards in the 2011 Topps All-Star set are just like the retail versions and have no special logo on each card. Is that correct ?

The reason I'm wondering, is because I just received my Limited Edition 60th anniversary set from Topps which has a logo on each card. Actually they are imprinted " FACTORY SET LIMITED EDITION". I want the Indian cards from it but I have no desire to have this set taking up shelf space so I want to offer up team sets to anyone interested. The Indians, Astros and possibly the Angels have already been spoken for. If any one is interested in their favorite team let me know with a comment on this post and I will work out the details. The sets will be FREE, I would only ask for enough money to cover the s&h. I would also consider other Tribe cards in trade, in lieu of the cash. Make me an offer !!

If the All-Star set has a logo on each card, I was going to buy one and break it into team sets also, and include them, at a small amount to cover the cost of the set, about $2.00 per team.

I know some of you hard core team collectors, like myself, have to have every variation (thank you very much Topps for making collecting so difficult) available in the cardosphere.

Let me know what you think and I will get this rolling !


Revision 1

WoW ! I didn't know so many people still read my work !

I'm still researching and waiting for an answer on the All-Star set.

NOTE : I'm sorry I should have clarified this at the begining. This was posted on another blog at one time, but some of you may not know that these cards are not imprinted with 60th Anniversary like I, and you may have thought. At the bottom of the card, right above the curved ribbon with the player's name inside, they are imprinted in silver foil "FACTORY SET LIMITED EDITION". They still have the Diamond Anniversary stamp at the top. If this changes anyone's mind, no problem, just let me know. I was a little disappointed but it is still a variation. I apologize if this is a problem for anyone.

Here's the list so far :

  13. Angel in Order - In the original post I mentioned the Angels may be taken. I have to check with someone on them. If he doesn't want them, they are yours !

    NY Hitman - I haven't forgotten. I still have a stack of cards on my bookshelf for you to make up for the HUGE box you sent me. I keep looking for more to add to it. I will put the Pirates in with those and get it out to you !

    Since I didn't exactly pay for the 60th set,(spent a lot to get code cards though!)I don't have to wait until all the teams are taken.I can just use leftovers in future trades. So as soon as I find out for sure on the All-Star set, I will get the cards shipped out!
    Thanks ,and spread the word !
