Autographs/Memorabilia: None
What's Buzz-worthy: This box wasn't among the biggest baddest ones I've ripped but it still included two top rookies, a third key rookie among the inserts and, important to me, a short-print I needed for my set. (Just a few more to go.) This is a product that's stacked with Rookie Cards and there are some impressive autographs to be found as well as other inclusions in hobby boxes. These deliver very well and right now the singles are available as the wax can still be found and shredded. When it's not? Then things will start drying up. I'm not as big on the 197os sets that are to come via Topps Heritage so I'm enjoying the 1960s while they last. The Walmart blasters (this was not one) include one extra insert only found there, so those are a definite option -- some good names are on that checklist. My Heritage High Number buying is winding down but it's definitely one of the most-tempting rips of the year.
Product Grade: A+
