They didn't have relics but Topps did a Grudge Match insert set in 2005 that sounds like your Classic Confrontations.

I won the auction with the Masterpieces patch auto. I contacted the seller and sent him the two links to the ones on worthpoint.com
He cancelled the auction and refunded my money and claimed to not know it was a fake.
I've been buying these cards for 3 years now and never noticed the word...
Can someone link to a Masterpieces patch auto that says Patch on it?
Neither of these do

That's a good point. The only two Stroke of Genius I don't remember ever seeing are Jeff Francoeur and Kevin Youkilis.
Also, don't think I've ever seen a Miguel Cabrera jersey auto.
I've been working on the 2008 Masterpieces autograph and patch sets since release date.
Still looking for five of the jersey autos and 8 stroke of genius. I have 38 patches and 24 patch autos.
I was just outbid on the Cole Hamels Stroke of Genius cards that ended at $96. $96 for a Cole Hamels...
Hey,
Does anyone know how I can get in touch with the dealer named Roger that had all the vintage cards at the FCB National? His table was one of the first ones on the right after walking in.
I purchased a bunch of cards from him with a credit card and the transaction hasn't been processed...
If anyone is in the Port Charlotte area tomorrow and wants a free ticket to the game, send me a PM.
I'm trying to get there around 11:30/noon if you want to meet up or I can try leaving the ticket at will call.

Does anyone think some of Billy Butler's 50 doubles will turn into home runs? He's only 24. His numbers so far look good until you remember his body type.
I think Mint Condition is a great book that covers the entirety of the baseball card industry. It has chapters about the early tobacco cards, high end vintage collectors, the origins of Topps, Donruss, Fleer, Upper Deck (don't remember to much about Score being in there), grading, and...
If you have a paypal balance that's all you can use until it hits zero again. Kind of annoying to have to keep transferring it to your bank account if you want to pay via some other means.
I've been building this set for years as well. I never saw the Ripken auction. Guess I need to work on my search parameters.
I still need Ripken, Mattingly, Schmidt, Molitor.
Does anyone know if the 2007 Turkey Red Kelvim Escobar Autograph card was actually produced? It was a redemption when the set was released but I've never seen one in three plus years of building this set.
Thanks.
Conor Jackson base auto was the big hit from my box back in '04. Sold it for around $25 back then. There was a Joey Votto auto that year that might do well right now.
