Topps Unique was a unique card line (pun intended). To my knowledge it didn't offer anything special that hadn't been done before. It would have been a great idea if Topps released a whole line of cards showing players in alternate uniforms like the 1st card in this post which was a subset called Unique Unis.
Instead all the base cards were a lot like what you see above. These "base" cards were all numbered, mine being 487/1199.
The above two cards are my latest Andrew McCutchen additions.
Topps might have something with their Unique line. I really like that unique uniforms subset. What if they produced a set that was based on a bunch of subsets: unique haircuts, unique superstitions, unique record holders, unique tattoos, etc.
ReplyDeleteIt's been years since they produced this set... and in all honesty... I'm not a fan of flooding the market with sets. But if they put out a Unique set every five years... I think that would be pretty cool.
