How much was it?Very neat.

I paid a fraction of what I think it would go for to the right owner .... wait ... I AM the right owner!!! :) I wouldn't be shocked if one day I sold it, if it would go for BIG money, but right now, I don't see me getting rid of it ... well .... ever! If I did though, I personally believe it would far surpass the Aqueous.

Who else was on the sheet?How does the back look?

I could be wrong, but I believe there was a Blyleven and a Clemens (both all star cards perhaps?) The back looks exactly like a stock regular 1989 topps card. It is definitely one of my favorite cards in my collection!

Uninspired. Generic. No Soul.


That is what I thought of the latest Canseco offering from Topps Tier One. A small picture of Canseco on the right, with a BIG open space for an autograph on the left. I picked up one that was cheap, but it had an autograph at the bottom so I picked up a copy that had his autograph smack dab in the middle.


My thoughts of the new Topps Series 2 Canseco cards continued along in the same vein as Teir One.


1) The first one is an SP and a sticker auto (which, by the way, I don't have an issue with sticker autos, if done correctly ... much like I have no problems w/out team logos if done correctly.)


Here is the picture of it. It is not ugly at all, but not eye popping.

Later that day, I saw the other Topps Series 2 Canseco autograph. This is # to 25.

My gut reaction was that I liked the first one better than the 2nd!


They look like the parents of the 1992 Score Impact Players card.

After a while though, they grew on me. I don't know why or how. Perhaps because they are genuine Topps cards that I have never seen before. I am not sure. A friend of mine said that these are a "necessary evil" - and for super collectors, I think that is a great way of putting it.


I don't think these are ugly designs at all. Upon initial inspection, I just felt like they were generic looking. Thankfully for me though, I have truly fallen in love with them. As a side note, I now think that a modified 1992 Score Impact Players card with an autograph may be a pretty dang good idea!


Both of the latest Topps Canseco cards are incoming, and I cannot wait to have them in hand. The Heart of the Order card has a base card which I have incoming as well.


As always, if you have any rare Canseco - let me know!

I think he said Jimmy Carter refuses to wear a bathrobe in the steakhouse, but I could be mistaken.

I don't recall - they may have been randomly seeded inside of certain types of packs, or perhaps they were sold as a subset by itself.

I have that one, as well as an unlicensed color version, and a foil border variation of it as well :)

Greetings, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to this evening's edition of mouschipiece theatre ...

Tonight, we feature the forgotten jumbo card. It is forgotten, because it is in my closet, propped up by a wall, and was mostly covered by a 1980's Canseco punch out mask prior to my cleaning kick tonight.

I've got to hand it to Topps here. They did a top notch job on this. The fingerprints of craftsmanship are all over this. It truly has a unique touch.

The card? A mega 12x18 Topps Archives TOUCHED BY GREATNESS.

It is Hand Signed.
It is Hand Numberd.
and most importantly...
It is Hand Printed.

It is truly a great, great card. I normally don't dig oversized things, but Topps really hit is out of the park with this one.

Are the other versions custom you made?Heh, imagine all the ladies that wanted that card back then.Remember how Score used clear wrapping on some of their packs?I used to look for stars or my team on the top and bottom of the see through packs.Remember those neat trivia cards in every Score pack?I loved those.
