I'm not seeing 1985 in the Father-Son card. Senior is definitely 1954, but Junior doesn't look like any particular design. Is the overall card design inspired by a 1985 subset?

Milwaukee should be listed as the team on the Aaron instead of Atlanta, too.

Solid day with two current stars and two of the best to play. Of course they also all have a bunch of cards in the set already.

Another Griffey for me to watch on eBay.

Looks just like the 1985 Father/Son subset cards.

I think Vides is starting to generate more buzz.

Once his clients from Prada and other luxury brands get wind of these cards the prices will go through the roof.

I am stocking up on all of his earlier ones!

I think people just like Yogi Berra more than the last 7 Yankees he chose (like Gleyber or Cole for example).

Do you guys think Saladeen is a big Mike Trout fan? I'm not sure I get the motivation behind re-doing his card.

Four other Project 2020 artists have done it and because he is one of the most popular baseball card subjects so the potential of higher sales is there.

Right. Totally get the financial motivation. Don't know why this one irked me more than some of the others.

I feel that the overlap between Gary Sheffield fans and Prada enthusiasts is not huge.

Today's cards aren't bad.

None of them are super. The Guerreros card is neat. It's remarkable that the APs haven't sold out.

The Aaron is a nicer Risk card, to me, but doesn't knock my socks off.

The Griffey is pretty nice, but I'm a little Griffeyed out.

The Trout was unnecessary but an obvious PR/money grab, so it's totally understandable.

I'll at least get the Trout as a companion to Project 2020 #399, with an outside chance at a 4-pack. I haven't decided yet.
