It's time to open some more cards! How about my first blaster of 2023 Topps Allen & Ginter? I'm hoping that this set will start coming around. In the beginning, it was fun gettingcards of odd objects or unusual people. But, lately it almost seems like they're being used as advertisement. Lots of Social media stars and Topps affilliates. I know it's a fine line between quirky and far out. They did it well for so long though, it's odd watching them lose their way. But, it's still fun to open cards, right?
How did this one turn out? Let's see!
The Box with the antique feel.
And the packs.
Unbelievable timing on this one.
Especially since it was the only Red Sox card in the box.
But, since this is my first box, how about some of the other cards?
Here's a nice example of a good oddball card subject. This is the guy responsible for the mud they use to rub up baseballs before games. Always seemed odd that there was only one type of mud that worked for this process. But, so be it.
Here's a former Red Sox player to add. The design this year is fun. I like the scrolling around the wood border. Feels rather elegant.
And there you have it. One timely Red Sox card, and a few others. But, nothing too exciting to talk about.
How did your box go?
