“ Good old Mariekson Gregorius. Nice airbrush job. ” -trauty

“ 2020 Heritage was the first modern set I ever completed! ” -StarrsCards

“ I like the facsimile autograph feature. It tells you whether or not you'd like to get their real autograph in the future, depending on the way it looks. ” -hamrlik22

“ Nice Heritage card. This is one that really looks nice and is a good homage to the original design. There is nothing "modern" about this card (well there is the small, thank goodness it is small, registered trademark (r) circle after the team name). It is very odd when the heritage cards have a player wearing a doo-rag or head band or some other obviously modern part of a uniform or equipment (or the full body shot showing his pants' legs extending over the bottom of his cleats. ” -captkirk42

“ Didi Gregorius is one of my favorite current ballplayers. It's great that he's now a Philly. I never would have guessed he was Dutch. ” -NickyCollects

“ Have always loved the look of that year's cards (although the back lacks complete yearly stats) . . . brings me back to my childhood . . . ” -georgecf

“ Neat, I have this one. I love Topps Heritage. ” -pugchump

“ I am now fully supportive of Heritage. Love the sets to be honest. Nice card! ” -muskie027

“ I like the photo on the front. It has a "this is Didi, and he mean business" type of vibe. ” -CollectingAfterDeath

The 2020 Heritage quality control was terrible. I bought a high number hobby box that had surface scratches on nearly every card and bent corners on at least 2 cards per pack. I sent every card back to Topps and they sent me back unopened packs that had all of the same surface issues.

I'm a total sucker for Heritage (and Archives)!  Something about classic card designs just hits me in the nostalgia.Reminds me of a simpler time when you got a pack of cards with 12 or 15 standard cards and maybe one insert.

A tidy card. A lot to like about this. A good heritage set, for a change.

Unlike the 1971 Topps set this design is based on, you will be more likely to find this set in mint condition in twenty years.
