2400 and counting

Classics on a budget...I don't think I'll be buying many cards that would be originals of a number of the players shown in the 2005 Upper Deck Classics set (see cards pre-1970 or so).

Highlights:

Love the look expecially with the black and white photos such as Tommie's above...

The rest:
Keepers:

The only hockey card in the 20 - always liked Luc, mild mannered and great off the ice and on. This is only my second card from this PowerPlay set.

Traders:

Another chunk of 2007 Topps football into the collection. I don't know why it is so much more clear with football, but the cars to tend to have a similar look - either just running or running...not much in the way of action shots. I know hockey can be similar (just skating), but I don't think it is as noticeable...maybe it is to other people...
