On this episode of Wax On we are breaking a hobby box of 2008 Topps Baseball Series One. I am a long time fan of the Topps base set; I guess collecting every card appeals to my meticulous nature. This product has a 330 card base set and 4 insert sets: Year in Review, Baseball Card History, Own the Game and Barry Bonds Home Run History. There are 4 parallel versions of the base set cards, some of which are sequentially numbered. Gold Foil not numbered, Gold numbered to 2008, Black numbered to 57, Platinum all 1 of 1. The 1 of 1 printing plates are also available for the base set cards. Topps also threw in a few extra sets this year; Campaign 2008 and Topps All Rookie Team 50th Anniversary. They also continued their coverage of Mickey Mantle's career with the Mickey Mantle Home Run History and Mickey Mantle Story sets. The Campaign 2008 set features most of the 2008 presidential candidates. These cards also come in a cut signature version, each is numbered to 15. There is also a series of 15 cards that feature presidential stamps of former presidents. The Topps All Rookie Team 50th Anniversary set is very cool idea and a nice looking set of cards. There are 55 players featured on the 1960 Topps All-Rookie design with their rookie photos. These cards also come in a Gold Foil version that are all sequentially numbered to 99. 40 of the players signed their cards, each is numbered to 50. 20 of the players are featured with a piece of memorabilia, these are also numbered to 50. Topps also inserted some autograph and relic cards. 48 players signed their 2007 highlight cards. 10 members of the Red Sox's signed World Series cards, each of these cards is sequentially numbered to 50 and features a piece of memorabilia. 35 players are featured with replica mini all start or world series jerseys, each is numbered to 499. 15 members of the Red Sox's are featured with a piece of their memorabilia on world series cards. 13 players in the season highlights set are featured with a piece of memorabilia. There is also a series of cards titled "In the Name" that features patch relics from the name plates on the 2007 all star jerseys, each of these cards are 1 of 1. And Finally there are a series of Barry Bonds Home Run Triple Relic cards that are all numbered to 250. In my box I received a nice pile of base cards, a healthy selection of Gold Foil parallels, four Gold parallels, two Mickey Mantle story inserts, four Mickey Mantle Home Run History inserts, six awesome looking Baseball Card History inserts, six Year in Review inserts, six Own the Game inserts, four Campaign 2008 inserts, and eight Topps All Rookie Team 50th Anniversary cards. There were no big pulls, but I still feel like I got a nice selection of cards.

Jul 5, 2008 - I am sorry that you think I talk too much. Creating informative videos is just how I like to do things. Some people like it, some don't, and that is okay with me.

Jul 5, 2008 - I got your message, thanks. Yeah, sometimes they do sound like commercials but that is unintentional. My goal is to demystify some of the jargon and fluff surrounding these products so that fellow collectors know what they are buying and looking at.
