“ Not used to seeing the 1969-70 NBA design in other sports but it works. I hope when Topps gets the NBA license back they bring back the Archives/Heritage concept. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ This is cool card! Austin is a stud!! ” -tinyshogun

“ I like retro cards but it is odd when they use designs from other sports. In this case a Basketball Design (1969-70 tall boys) ” -captkirk42

“ Throwback Thursday is an awesome concept, because Topps uses a lot more than old baseball designs, including a variety of non-sport, but they're just too expensive for me, so I've still never bought any. ” -switzr1

I love TBT, Living Set, and GWTG. While I don't always order from the Topps site, I'm always looking to add to my sets for these cards. The limited print runs are just what I'm looking for. Really these are the only 3 SETS I even try to collect.

I'm one who hates the reuse of old designs.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

I've seen better looking backs on (old) Kmart cards.

Feels like they didn't really try too hard with this one.

Seems a bit plain to me, front and back, but it's not annoying or cartoonish. As an adult, it's okay.

As a kid, I'd be tempted to get out my colored pencils and color in the uniforms on the players.

Collecting White Sox, Royals, and 1978 Topps Baseball. Trying to build a multi-sport HOF frankenset.

Done is better than perfect.
