Seemed only fair to add a little Easter egg in the background for Stric9.

I've said it before, I love the support and suggestions from you guys and love chances like this to put a spotlight on a collector. Thanks!!!!

Jared, your willingness to interact with and support the collectors, who are fans of your work, is really appreciated . I hope this set goes on forever. There are so many great players left . I’m now up to 157 PSA gem mint cards and have been trying to build one of the finest sets in Canada. Although I’m not even close to my brothers collection @astrotrevor.

Great work on the Maris and thanks again from Canada !

I did a couple quick searches on Google and eBay, and I can’t find any graded prints. Doesn’t mean they don’t exist, but I’ve yet to see anything posted for sale since the first print was released.

I echo the sentiment about Jared and the set.

Regarding your PSA 10 journey, are you sending in cards for grading, or buying gem mint cards on the secondary market?

These prints look so nice signed. Framing it sends it to the next level. Thanks for sharing!

Time to officially frame and hang this.
61/100 (close enough)

Wow! Before now I hadn't even thought of the collector out there who has 62/100. I imagine the value on that print has gone up slightly

You've got me excited thinking about a collector ending up with the 61/100 Maris print next year. That will be sweet too!

I really hope you're correct that a "collector" ends up with it.

Indeed

Could a few of you weigh in on what you use for frames for the fine art prints. Recently moved and have room to show off a few. I would like to just buy a frame and place the pint in without using a border. Thanks!

Full Disclaimer: when I DIY, I don't spend a lot of money on frames. I either spend a ton of money and have it professionally done or I just buy archival tape and mount it in an Ikea frame. I would recommend you go to ikea and look for their RIBBA frames. They come in black and white though black almost always looks better IMHO. If you want without matte, here's your frame though if you have the wall space, I heavily recommend this one. I'd go pick up a couple for $25, play around with them and decide how many you want to buy.

Looks like with today's obi-wan they removed the limit ... as I can add 40 to cart right now.

I hope Topps gets this figured out before the next round of baseball prints.

It would be great if they just set the limit to 1 per account per day. If you want to purchase multiple copies, you have a week to pick up as many as 7 prints, provided they're still available.

Still waiting…no response from Wheeler, pretty disappointing at this point. Needless to say I order directly from Topps currently.

Have they done 2 rookies on same release before?

Would seem crazy that there wasn't, but I can't recall.

They released AJ Minter (ATL) and Harrison Bader (STL) the same week when they were still releasing three cards per week, but this is only the second week since Topps began releasing two cards per week that both were rookies. The first time was Tyler Stephenson (CIN) and Tanner Houck (BOS) the same week.

Does anyone remember when Topps went to two cards per week?

Agreed. Thanks all for making collecting this amazing set even more fun.

So is anyone keeping track of who is still collecting all of these? I dropped out around 225, too much to even deal with.
