Case Break – 6 Box 2011 Topps Heritage Minor League – Blowout Cards Forums.

I think it was only “hobby” issued, but I need to confirm: Was there both hobby and retail version of 2001 Topps Heritage? If so how do you tell the difference on the unopened box?

Nice HOF’er autograph pulled in this box!

Some decent pulls in this box.

FYI: Not Topps Heritage related, but who can resist free cards? Press Pass is asking collectors to fill out a short survey in exchange for a “free exclusive promotional set of Press Pass cards.” Visit their website at www.presspassinc.com for more information.

I’m a little bit late in posting this, as I haven’t got any of the variations myself, but here is a list for future reference anyway.

#58 Conor Jackson, the SP variation card features a Rays logo on the card. This is similar to the original 1960 Topps #58 Gino Cimoli which shows him in a Cardinals uniform but features a Pirates logo.

#70 Tom Glavine, the SP variation has his name spelled as “Thom” similar to how the original 1960 Topps #70 misspelled Lew Burdettes name as “Lou.”

#102 Adrian Gonzalez, the SP variation features a Rangers logo on the front. This mimics the original 1960 Topps #102 Kent Hadley which shows Hadley in an A’s uniform but the card features a Yankees logo.

#346 Fred Lewis, picture is actually Randy Winn. This is similar to the original 1960 Topps #346 J.C. Martin which actually shows Gary Peters.

#407 Randy Winn, picture is actually Fred Lewis. This is similar to the original 1960 Topps #407 Gary Peters which actually shows J.C. Martin.

#445 John Smoltz, the SP variation features Smoltz in a Red Sox Uniform.

#488 Hanley Ramirez, the variation shows him in a Red Sox uniform.
Variation: Featured in Red Sox Uniform. This is similar to the original 1960 Topps #488 which shows Norm Cash in an Indians cap but the card has a Tigers logo.
