I believe it is his first tin .. but regardless it’s cool and it’s trout .. why not just put it away sealed for my kids to find in 30yrs

Fun analysis of what made Trout great at the plate in ‘19... hits in the shadow of the plate at a huge distance better than the rest of the league

Never seen those before. Looked and seen people are selling the tins empty for around $6+ At that price I might as well just buy an unopened tin though.

I am not even going to bother bruh.

I can't compete with big dogs in this thread like Moose and the rest.

It's a great fish! I don't have one... you came late KB but you have a great PC

my Top 3 (the black /100 psa 10 is 4th for me)

Geoff G · 04-23-2020, 11:44 PM

Not my best per say .. but my fav because I pulled them all .. and the big all star patch was my first hit getting back into the hobby in 2013 ..which sent me on a massive wax binge chasing them 1/1 and trouts lolol .. glad I put a stop to that or I’d be poor right now

This must be the “scare off the newcomers” thread- haha. Waiting for jjeanius to post the colors.

To all who have posted- amazing. 99.99% of the collectors in the world aren’t worthy.

Well, for design, I like Topps Finest over Topps Chrome. And then 2015 and 2017 have to be in the choice. Ok, then I chose:

That card is up there too.. but I truly love the photo and overall look of the 2015 Opening Day SSP Variation. The clouds, the stadium, the back of the jersey, and the matching red boarders are breathtaking to me

Totally agree! Aesthetically that’s a top 5 card IMO.

Great cards, everyone! Tons of fire in this thread. Just makes me even more anxious for baseball season to start.

Thanks a lot Reggie. Now I have to find a 2015 opening day ssp! I don’t remember that card. And now I need one.
