2008 Topps Heritage High Numbers Orlando Cepeda Auto

This was the best card I pulled from a case of 2008 Topps Heritage High Numbers. Orlando is a hall of famer that flies a little under the radar. 1959 was only Cepeda's second major league season, following up his Rookie of the Year 1958 season with another solid performance. In 1959, Cepeda hit .317 with 27 home runs, 35 doubles, 92 runs, 105 RBI and a career high 23 steals. So much for the sophomore slump.

2008 Topps Heritage Minnie Minoso Redemption Auto

I pulled this card from a pack of 2008 Topps Heritage. It was the first redemption card I have ever pulled. If you are not familiar with these, you basically get a "card" that you mail in to the card company, and then a few weeks or months later, the card company mails you the real auto card. I believe this Minoso was hand numbered to either 10 or 25, but I sold the redemption card instead of mailing it in. Here is what it looked like.

A Sweet Auto to Kick Off 2007 Heritage

One of the first boxes of 2007 Topps Heritage produced this beauty, a Real One David Wright auto. I love the post and the design of this card, and if you look to the right (no pun intended) of Wright's signature, you can see where he wrote his jersey number "5" really small. Pretty sweet card.
