1997 Topps Gallery Box Break Images

Posted in Box / Pack Break with tags , , , , , on November 12, 2009 by Cardboard Icons

Here are the images from my 1997 Topps Gallery baseball video box break posted a week ago. Pretty neat break. I wound up missing only six cards from the 180-card set and had only a few doubles.

Here is an example of what some of the cards look like:

Video Box Break: 1997 Topps Gallery Baseball

Posted in Box / Pack Break with tags , , , , , , , on November 4, 2009 by Cardboard Icons

After waiting more than two weeks for my box of 1997 Topps Gallery, the box arrived early Wednesday morning via FedEx. I broke it LIVE on steaming video. Images of the cards will be scanned and shown later. Over all a pretty cool box, hope you enjoy it.

Also, there are a few other video breaks that can be seen at www.qik.com/cardboardicons. I recently broke a retail Blaster of 2009 SP Baseball (link), a Retail Tin of 2009 Sweet Spot baseball (link 1, link 2),  a discounted 2008 Stadium Club Blaster (link), and a 1996 Upper Deck Series 2. hobby box (link). And if you have not yet done so, you can follow me on Twitter at www.twitter.com/cardboardicons. I send out a tweet minutes before each LIVE video break.

Results of the break are inside … Continue reading
