When did that stop exactly? Was it immediate, or was it more gradual? I don't really remember any off-center Upper Deck cards ever (or 1988 Score, the only Score set I have), so maybe when those two stepped up the game, that's when Topps started doing so?Steve F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00753488569249068229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433941530167569659.post-8322974623634425902013-03-17T13:12:14.917-04:002013-03-17T13:12:14.917-04:00Night Owl - I think I like the set more now than I...Night Owl - I think I like the set more now than I did when it first came out. Still trying to figure it out . . .<br /><br />John - Completely agree with you on the cropping. It seems as if all the Topps sets from the mid to late '00s suffered from this issue.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161762602291616465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433941530167569659.post-26722400244491447332013-03-17T12:52:53.004-04:002013-03-17T12:52:53.004-04:00This was a set that brought me back to collecting....This was a set that brought me back to collecting. This is the first Topps set I own since 1992. Got all the cards (1063). I wish Howard would have gotten his own card in the update. Same Thing with Mr. David Wright. The action shots needed to be cropped a little tighter. Utley is an example.John Batemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14159036395402962119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433941530167569659.post-6208358084396267422013-03-17T11:48:08.856-04:002013-03-17T11:48:08.856-04:00I like this set more and more.

I think the only thing preventing me from collecting it is I paid so little attention to baseball in 2005 that I have almost no connection to the players.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.com
