Allen & Ginter​

<a href="https://imgur.com/nbh0sSY"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/nbh0sSY.jpg" title="source: imgur.com" /></a>

24 packs - 8 cards per pack
Look for any 3 of these cards in every box: auto'd cards, relic cards, printing plates, rip cards, and book cards

I pulled these in my box:

Base

<a href="https://imgur.com/ifgXVib"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/ifgXVib.jpg" title="source: imgur.com" /></a>

125 unique base and 12 SP's(#ed 351-400)

Allen & Ginter the iconic issue has returned. The design is basically the same as it has been for years. The reverse has everything spelled out - i.e. no numbers such as games played (one hundred forty two.) The reverse has write-ups on non baseball players - folks that stand out in their own right.

I like the older/retired/Hall of Famers, such as Ruth, Gehrig, Musial, Koufax, Gibson to be included occasionally in issues. This furthers their legacies in the greatest sport ever. Younger folks need to be kept aware of the great rich history of America's sport - BASEBALL!

Set builders, player collectors, and icon collectors - Mercer, Claiboune,Bonomo Kepner, Colby to name a few, along with auto collectors, and the mini-set builders, and the subset collectors should all be happy with Allen & Ginter 2019.

I need some help - where/what are the cards 301 thru 350?

**In all my years of ripping boxes, this is, I believe the 2nd Rip Card I have ever pulled...literally 000's of boxes....
OK -- I have not ripped this card ....yet. I will leave it up to the folks that actually read this. Vote on this thread -- to rip or not to rip. On the 'bay, unripped - $50+ ... just sayin'. Could be a 1/1 or auto, or wooden card.... who knows?

Overall grade A

Go buy several boxes and see if you pull a rip card - either way send the Rays mini's to me!

RIP IT! Imagine pulling a 1/1 wood Rays card :) or a $15 sp mini lol

Either way, I couldn't keep myself from doing it... I ended up selling the lone one I ever pulled from 2006. Never knew what came out of it, but that was probably for the best!
 
Nice break - thank you for the review.

If the blue ribbon and in bloom cards are available for trade, would like to try and acquire them.

Also - RIP IT!!!
 
I say sell it. Interested in the Josh Bell GU card if available. Only have the following 2019 to trade so far. Plmk if interested. Butch
