Opening Millenium

 It's been a bit, but back to the COVID lot for some more cards. Today we get some 2000 Topps Opening Day.


If you didn't know it was the opening day set, they made sure to take up 1/8 of the card with a nice big Opening Day 2000 foil logo on the front of EVERY CARD. I guess they figured adding the Topps logo into it was too much, so you still also get the Topps name separately as well for good measure.


At only 165 cards for the base set, it's a manageable set to collect, but with the 30-40 cards in this bunch that would be covered, I'm not quite drawn to this one yet. Maybe if more come from the late we can revisit, but for now, all up for trade.


I will say, the Dante card with a certain wall behind him, not only let's you know the park the card was in, makes for a very nice card.


No Jays unfortunately, and no error cards, so all trade bait for now, though the pictures are pretty nice all around, and the grey border isn't offensive, though just adds to the grey with the foiling, so could be a bit better, but a middling set personally. I will say, I like the 1999 set a bit better, if for no other reason than the Opening Day logo was less obtrusive on the front.

  1. A set I've maybe seen once. Plenty of good players. Maddux and Canseco are my favorites. Happy Thanksgiving!
