2016 Topps Archives

I picked up a 2016 Topps Archives Blaster box earlier this year and I wanted to show off a few cards from the packs that I liked a lot.  This year's Archives takes the 1953, 1979 and 1991 designs and puts them into the set.  Personally, I love the 1991 design as that was shortly after I began collecting baseball cards as a kid.  Seeing the new players in that design makes me feel pretty nostalgic in a good way.

I only was able to pull 2 Cubs players, but at least I got a couple of good ones.

Here are 2 inserts that I liked from the box.

Here are a few other players that were cool to get.

Unfortunately, I didn't get an autograph, but I did pull a blue Sandy Koufax out of 99, the short print Sandy Koufax, and the base to go along with it.  I was able to sell those 3 on eBay for the cost of the box, so it was nice to recoup the money and get some solid cards with it.
