1997 topps finest series one break
Never broke any of this while I was growing up and while I was at the mall purchasing a new phone I decided to go into the small hobby shop that is there aswell, seen this box and figured what the
hey.
I am sure I got a few rcs aswell but it has been a minute since
I last collected so I am unsure who rookie year this was and am
too lazy to look at the moment.
but here is the other highlights
Larry Walker Finest masters embossed
Dante Bishette Power embossed
Ken Caminiti Silver
John Burkett Refractor
Sandy Alomar Silver Refractor
Jamine Bluma refractor
Edgar Renteria refractor
Jose Canseco embossed
Greg Maddux gold
Frank Thomas diecut embossed gold refractor
I am guessing the Thomas was a pretty good pull seeing as the pack put it at pretty high odds per pack

I collect all Willy nilly with no major rhyme or reason.
I have fun with my hobby, that is what I collect for my PC.....FUN nothing more nothing less.

I'll find my Printer install cd in a bit and upload a pic....or I can just
stop being lazy and fix my gaming computer and post from that..Either way I post a picture later...at first I thought it was pack seal damage until I saw the entire border of the card
