Willie Mays is basically dead and couldn't see well enough to sign many of these cards. McGwire and Henderson signed cards at their most recent signings but they weren't done as a limited edition.

As of the time that Trout signed the Ermsy cards for me, he had not seen/heard of Project 2020. This means that the Topps Trout autos are either going to be likely delayed past the delivery of card #100 or they're going to be sent as redemption cards.

Thanks for the info. Personally, I would love to see autos from all living players and any price could be justified for such an "iconic" set. Realistically, how many more autos will Koufax, Mays and Gibson be signing? If this set doesn't justify their asking price, what does?

On a side note, I have a kinda unique piece i wanted to get signed by McGwire, any idea if/when he's doing another singing?

Aw man, still catching up. On page 1614. Every time I think I have a witty comment or a snide remark, someone has already made it. Forgive my absence, I have strayed from the page.

Imagine someone beginning reading now. It would take a month full-time employed.

Yeah looks like he's using 130pt for his card stock.

And with his packaging, his printing and card stock. He might have the best valued companion card.

Anyway, let's post the PRs again as they may have been missed

Topps PROJECT 2020 Card 167 - 2011 Mike Trout by Naturel - Print Run: 11658
Topps PROJECT 2020 Card 168 - 1980 Rickey Henderson by Ermsy - Print Run: 6650

Guessed right on the Trout Naturel being below 12K

Mdrosenkrans · 07-23-2020, 06:25 PM

With this week's releases, just glad I finally took the plunge and started ordering through Wheeler instead of directly!

Thankful for crown coins in my life, maybe now I'll make it to card #400 without going bankrupt first?

Nothing has been loaded. Usually we'll see them before 10:30AM of the drop.

The last 4 cards were just an anomaly especially Thursday as they were a day early.

Is anyone here getting all the companion cards?

Topps posted on Twitter they are up to shipping #94. If I recall correctly, last week they were shipping #93. At this rate, it's going to take them 6 weeks just to get to #100, let alone being caught up

As of now, yes, but I'm short a MB #1 and I gotta figure out the Tyson Topps printed one.

Still waiting to hit the three or four golds I must in order to fund though.

Even at 4 cards a week from now on, we'll see the cards this week in about 20 weeks?

Hot taek. Not surprising from someone who posted this in the P2020 bad buyer thread:

If you expect someone to keep something that cost $500 which is worth $20 now, you're an #@#@#@#@#@#@#@. There are products and you're a seller, these aren't stocks where it is buyer beware.

I have zero sympathy for returns. I only feel bad for the idiots who are going to keep cards which are only worth 10% of what you paid 2 weeks ago.

Does someone need to get a Shore Black Mug, Silver Mug and Gold Mug to have a full companion card set?

Seems like they are similar enough to count as a single companion card.

zbaseball21 · 07-23-2020, 07:08 PM

So Thiele's Trout is no longer the second lowest print Mike Trout. Didn't think we'd see that after the whole Griffey Shore but here we are.
