Why is the Father-Son insert set called "Father-Son Recreate" in the database? ------------------------------- I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

Possibly because Topps is "recreating" a 1985 card that wasn't part of the original 1985 Topps Father-Son subset? The Topps website uses "Recreate" in the set title.

Funny....these posts always get you thinking ?? I had to go back to my 1985 Topps boxes and see how many Father-Son I had from 1985. To my surprise quite a few....decided to make a few subsets, cool! ~BOB~ ------------------------------- *Bob*

I thought the same thing, but pretty much every card in every set of this release fits that description. That's the whole point of Archives. I just wondered. I'm not suggesting it needs changed or anything, if that's what Topps calls them. I hadn't looked at the Topps website. Thanks guys.
