I only have nine cards from this year's Heritage set. That doesn't mean I'm in a rush to get more - that set, like Gypsy Queen, Archives, and Allen and Ginter, I seem to mostly pick up through blogger giveaways or random collection acquisitions. For eight of those cards I had a match in '71 Topps (still need '71 Topps #1). These two stood out:
#26 star pitchers. I guess Quintana isn't really as big a star as he used to be - seems to have struggled more with the Cubs. Still, couldn't pass up squeezing in a HOF rookie card.
#247 Royals rookies. I have no idea why Topps couldn't keep the colors the same. Too soon to tell if either Staumont or Starling will become a Royals star like Paul Splittorff. Looks like Staumont is having a nice season out of the bullpen though.
