Hey gang,

I bought my first hobby box in 20 or so years last night. 16 Topps Series 1.

I pulled to thick thing with a silver frame numbered 6/16. It JP Howell.

What do I have and how do I protect it?

Thanks.

I'm guessing it's this card.

Even though Beckett hasn't posted the actual print run yet, it does show that it is serial numbered.

As for protecting it, you will probably want to look at a 120 pt or 130 pt top loader to store it in. That's what I typically use for thicker cards.

Nice pull, btw!

Can you post a pic? You can protect it by a thicker gauge top loader or magnetic one touch.

I used either a 120 or 150pt magnetic one touch case. In fact I use magnetic cases for all of my more expensive pc
cards..

Agreed, but I haven't seen 150pt One touch cases, only 130 and 180. I think I've used the 180 for my framed cards.

Cheers
