I received a shipping notice, too. Will be really cool to start adding these to my portfolios again.

Still waiting on a Mantle to post to eBay.

Added the print runs for Matz and Witt Jr.

Surprised Witt didn't break 20k.

Those look amazing! I like how much of the arm batch you can see, too.

And do my eyes deceive, or is that the first three in the run?!

You are correct, I bought a stack and must have been first in line

Have a lot of friends and relatives that would love one of these.

What’s the best way to store these—11x14 toploaders? Or sleeve and toploader?

Itoya binders, I usually buy them in lots from B&H Photo but you can find them anywhere. UPC is 075633906159 and in 2020 you could get them for $15 each. Looks like they are $22 now, maybe shop around.

I second this.

It's a great way to store and admire the prints.

Joliet Jake · 05-06-2022, 05:39 PM

Puckett showed up today. Looks beautiful in hand.

Received shipping notification for Darvish yesterday, and I still have three prints released before that with no notifications.

jaredkelley · 05-07-2022, 02:45 PM

Some of you may know that my past work in the Hobby before Topps consisted solely of hand-painted art cards / sketch cards for other companies (UpperDeck, ITG, SportKings). Since joining the Living Set, it's been on my to-do list to hand-paint some portraits directly on my Living Set cards.

I finally got around to testing out the process. It's been a few years since I've painted an art card but I was pleased with this initial attempt. I haven't thought much of how I'd incorporate this into my Living Set offerings, but I definitely want these 1/1 art cards to end up in collectors hands.

Thought you guys might enjoy seeing what mad-scientistry is happening in the studio.

Hope everyone has a great Mother's Day weekend!

jdandns · 05-07-2022, 05:59 PM

How come my Living Set cards don't look that good when I draw on them?!?

Amazing work, as always, Jared. Thanks for the inside look at the process.

Joliet Jake · 05-08-2022, 10:44 AM

That’s unbelievable!

Thank you again for always giving us a look into your processes. The results never fail to amaze.

jdandns · 05-08-2022, 09:41 PM

Maybe Topps can commission 1/1 hand-painted variations and randomly insert them into the run.

I would love to add new wrinkles like that to the set.

I've pitched a few ideas to Topps already, and while they don't say "no" explicitly, there's never any follow-up from their end.

It seems they are sticking with the same setup of living set since it wa a launched.
