Card: #151 Alex Rios


“ Love the SN1 cards. Cool! ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I was drawn to this design from the start and the gold version is especially appealing to me. Simple and sleek. ” -koloth42

“ Card is serial numbered 1 of 2013, very cool! GO WHITE SOX! ” -carthage44

“ I liked the 2013 Topps design, but the Gold parallel didn't really add anything to it. Nice, but not great. ” -vrooomed

“ The 1973 retro uniform is nice, though I've always preferred their black & whites. I like the card's simple design elements, but not the gold color. ” -C2Cigars

“ These were some beautiful throwbacks for the Sox, but even better in the '70s. ” -jlaz10

“ Pretty cool to have the first card printed of 2013 cards! ” -bkklaos

" That looks pretty sharp. " -Captain America

“ I like that for the gold parallels Topps has been making them more obvious they are the gold version by using the gold border instead of just making the players name and team name/logo gold (like they did in the early 90s). This way you can still read the names in 92 and 93 you couldn't read the names on the gold versions if you could tell it was a different version. I still think they have way too many parallels and variants now-days. ” -captkirk42

“ #1!!! Pretty nice. ” -volbox

“ Decent enough looking card. I like the throwback uniform. And the 0001/2013 is cool. ” -switzr1

Just not a fan of White Sox red unis.

I didn't notice the serial number at first.  I have a nice collection of serial numbered 01/001/0001 cards,and actually believe they are underappreciated by the hobby.
