I've been watching people open cases of Bowman Transcendent on Youtube. $21000 per case and it comes with unbelievable shit.
Ive seen people pull Roberto Clemente and Jerry Garcia cut autos. So sick.

Since it's been nearly impossible to get cards at retail prices this year (fuck you covid) I've been doing a lot of online breaks lately.
I did manage to find 3 blaster boxes of 2020 Topps Archives at Target last week. Pulled a couple decent cards...1 auto.

What are autos and why is there a Jerry Garcia baseball card? I used to really be into collecting, now I don't understand what the hell is going on.
*I'll give you a Jorma Kaukonen, a Freddie Freeman Rookie and a Dr. Fauci for your Ronald Acuna Jr, John Belushi (Samurai Deli version) and your Deborah Birx.*

Topps sprinkles in pop culture folks from time to time...
Fauci had a card because Topps has a product call Topps Now where they pick actual events and release a card the next day...Fauci threw out the first pitch of the season, so they made it into a card.

I saw the Fauci thing, and kind of figured they were doing spur of the moment cards for "famous" people now. It would be weird to be an 11 year old and super excited to get a pack of cards looking for an Aaron Judge or Mike Trout and pulling out a Jerry Garcia.

I agree...I think the pop culture icons are mostly limited to the high end products, like Venkman was talking about.

It's a SUPER high end product. $21,000 per box Other 1/1 autos from that set are MLK, Teddy Rosevelt, Eisenhower... BIG names.

Yeah, but most of the pricing is done by eBay comps.

Im re-establishing my collection to pass on someday to the boi. Man Cave type stuff for now.
Better pricing going on at Antique stores than at the card shop I went to. If your buying singles.
