“ I'm really not sure why? But I like all the Heritage and Archive issues produced by Topps and Bowman. Must be the "old timer" in me. lol. ~BOB~ ” -BOBSCARDZ

“ Baseball went overboard in the mid 2000's with their heritage/archives sets. ” -carthage44

“ Nice retro set. When these Heritage sets first came out I hated them for being modern sets using old designs. Little did I know they would become a staple of the Topps world and I would end up liking them. Now Ronnie on the other hand, I didn't know at the time of this card, but when he was traded to the Nationals I liked him, but his time with the team was short. ” -captkirk42

“ Ho hum, another retread. ” -vrooomed

“ I liked Belliard. Important, though rarely mentioned, member of the 2006 Cardinals championship team. ” -switzr1

I detest these sets. They simply are a money grab and an example of lack of creativity on the part of Topps.

Search for any active player these days, and one will find pages, and pages....and pages, of their favorite player cards, all within one year. I like the Heritage and Archive cards, but I also consider them reprints, and not the real deal. So I try not to saturate my collection with too many of them, usually sticking to the basics, which would be the regular base set. It's tempting, but a line must be drawn.

I don't detest them. I don't like them. The vintage look for those type card sets just doesn't do it for me. To each their own. I'll stick to real vintage. Edited on: Apr 21, 2015 - 7:37PM ------------------------------- Dave
