Something That Screams 2021

 Let me start by showing the next bunch of 2021 Topps flagship base set keepers, and then let's discuss at the end.





There is one card up here, that I now have a bunch of which is one of the few which come to mind whenever I think of COVID era baseball....

To be honest, it is the "good" that it reminds me of - coming out of hibernation as it was, taking precautions, but starting to get back to life, and working together to do it as safely as possible. No matter your stance on vaccines, COVID, issues with how it was or wasn't handled, I like to focus on the human spirit aspect and how well, in many faucets of life, people came together to do as best possible with it.

Happy to have a bunch more of the Vladdy card, and hand sanitizer was definitely something we all became more aware of for the times. Even now, I find it amazing to think this was just a few years ago - time is funny that way, sneaks past so quickly.

  1. I have lots of 2021 Topps, but had never seen them displayed in pages like this. The way the nameplate features align is quite satisfying, especially considering they don't look very nice on just one card alone (reminds me of most recent years' Donruss designs).
