Retro Break: 2002 Upper Deck SPX - wpro11 - 08-14-2017
These cards are beautiful. Something about a solid, crisp, white border card has always had my attention. Possibly why I shied away from Topps until they got exclusive rights. (Had a lot of dark product with easily seen flaws)

And some actual modern day "hits" for a change!:

Not a bad break at all! Ive been drawn to late 90's, early 2000's products lately as well. Brings back a certain nostalgia along with a time where companies needed to be more innovative due to competition.

Just curious, how much did you pay for that box? Buying older boxes from a local hobby shop?

Very nice!! That was an expensive product back in 2000's. Who is the auto of?

I do most of my box hunting on eBay. This one was $37.00 and free shipping.
Auto is Tom Shearn. Played 7 games for the Reds in 2007 and that's it. lol

I bought a box of 1995 Studio for $26 with free shipping. Loved the credit card design and solid stock. Pulled an A-Rod platinum!

I loved those cards! I remember visiting my grandma's house and going to the convenience store with my brother to open packs of those to get the plastic gold credit card inserts! Good memories! Post some pics if you can. I'd love to see them.
