“ MINI's! I am a fan. I love a good frame on a card as well. Gypsy always looks great to me. If you know where to look they make sleeves, top loaders, and even pages to store these. ” -pjdionne12

“ Totally got into Gypsy Queen a few years ago. Nice simple design, good tidbit not the back, nice set of players with fun old-time players mixed in. Then they moved all the old-time players to short print land, and I'm losing my enthusiasm. Why I would want them to be smaller, I do not know. Or they should ONLY be smaller. But not both. ” -Vvvergeer

“ Still kind of like Gypsy Queen and A&G but got real tired of the mini card 5 or 6 years ago. Maybe 10 years ago. Anyway still a good card I just don't like mini parallels anymore. ” -captkirk42

I love all of the mini cards. I like the Gypsy Queen cards but on some the numbers on the back are really difficult to see/read.

I love Gypsy Queen cards. The throwback look is awesome and I love the frame parallels and minis from the early sets.

That is the whole idea with the Gypsy Queen brand ditto with Allen & Ginter(s) to give homage to the original tobacco card brand of the same name. Both brands have a standard base set with the mini parallels.
