I pulled the larry bird relic, but it is numbered 07/51. I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone have any information about this card?

+1 for the box breaks! They are one of my favorite features of your blog. Thanks for the entertainment.

Definately. That's probably the main one I'm going to work on.

That's cool.

Are you going to build the Heritage set this year? It would be great to be able to build the set alongside somebody else so that we could give extras back and forth to complete the set.

Oh, I like the chase. I just have too many sets on my plate. My Topps baseball and basketball need to be finished before I start the 2010 set. And now I have stupid hockey to worry about.

It's fun to put together, but just like any release - especially retro releases for whatever reason, you have to go through the struggles of finding the true set.

Every set has 'error' cards, SP's, alternate versions and altered auto and relic lists. Actually Murad is one of the easier sets to put together from that perspective.

Look at A&G minis for example. SP's, black bordered, Ginter backs, Red backs, and normal. I'd much rather figure out the auto list than wade those waters of building a set like that again.

I can see why you might want to walk away from building this set for a while, but it's still fun. And building a set shouldn't be too easy.

I'm just hoping that Heritage is 'tame' compared to some other stuff that's out there right now.

I think I'm going to move on from this set for...

I think I'm going to move on from this set for now. I'll send you anything you need off of the base card list when I send over the minis. Except for the Blazers, of course. You're on your own there.

Larry Bird pull is an epic victory. I love your blog. I don't even like basketball cards. But you give the whole topic a pleasant captivation. Proud of you man.
