I think I still have the Topps micro set in a box somewhere, never opened. I didn’t know it was sold in packs.

I wonder how much that card went for back in the day? I loved Delmon coming up through the minors, but he’s always had, um, “incidents.” Hopefully he’s getting it together.

Comment on Project Prism: The Quest For `The Elite Series’ Set by johnux

Wow, what a great post.I don’t know how I stumbled across this but I couldn’t agree more! The Elite Series was the absolute height of rare inserts before they started producing shiny one off cards in every pack like they do today. 1 insert set that’s near impossible to pull, standard release versions of core sets. That’s how it should be. Now there are so many versions of RC’s that even collecting them gets boring. Pulling an Edgar Martinez Elite Series back when I was 8 years old was the highlight of my collecting. I’ve never received that kind of thrill collecting anything whether it was coins, plush, diecast, or girls phone #’s. It’s still probably my favorite card even compared to some of the mint rookies I have from the 60′s.

Does Topps get credit for sending you two cards with that miscut card. That’s as bad a miscut card as I’ve seen in a while.
