Remember that redemption card that I pulled out of a pack of 2012 Topps Heritage last month? It turned into this much better looking piece of cardboard:

Nice. So far, I'm deviating from my standard practice and keeping it in its toploader, rather than throwing it into the scrum with the rest o' the cards. It's perdy. I really like the retro design for this. Better than a bunch of foil and stickers and refraction and whatnot.
One of the fun things about getting this card is that I have the matching base cards to make for a nice little group of happy Cubbie cardboard.

I like that they used the same photos. Nice touch. Naturally, I'd prefer this to be a Koufax/Kershaw Dodger fest, but I'm not complaining. Let the investor types worry about what it's all worth. Doesn't matter to me. This was just plain fun to get, and that's all the value that I'm looking to get out of it.
