The red bordered one is from a set I was not familiar with - the Topps "582 Montgomery" set. The set's name refers to the Brooklyn address of the first headquarters of Topps, and the set uses a variety of never-used vintage Topps designs. I was interested to find out more of the history of these designs. The Topps website for 582 Montgomery didn't have much, but I came across two blogs I wasn't familiar with before - Cards that Never Were and Topps Archives - that have a lot of information about unused Topps designs. I've just started checking them out - should be fun and interesting reads.
(This was my first post on the new Blogger interface. After seeing all the negative reaction I was expecting something terrible, but this didn't seem very much different? Maybe because I post from my computer, not a phone.)
Go Braves :)
