I was fortunate enough to be able to purchase several boxes of 2025 Topps Allen & Ginter. For the first box, I broke down every single pack with lots of scans. Today, I'm back with box #2, but this time around, we'll simply look at the highlights of the box!
Minis:
Brooklyn Back: 217. Chase Dollander #16/35
Anytime you rip Allen & Ginter, you always need to make sure you flip over your minis - you never know if you'll find one of the rarer backs such as this Brookly Back of Chase Dollander. Hand-numbered out of only 25, this is a nice mini pull!
Chrome Minis:
2. Mark McGwire and 69. Freddie Freeman
I don't plan to collect this year's Chrome minis (I'm still working on last year's set). Still, we got two nice players here.
Mini inserts:
A nice smattering of mini inserts including two more fish cards. All of these are needs, so that's good!
Full-Sized Cards:
Red Foil Filigree:
280. Greg Barnett #2/5
Woah! A Red Foil Filigree numbered out of only 5 copies! It's rare to get a single serially-numbered card out of a box of Ginter, never mind pulling cards as low numbered as what this box offered up (#/25 and now #/5).
Hits:
Framed Relic:
MFR-GC. Gary Carter
Framed Auto:
MA-TES. Thairo Estrada
Both solid hits, I'll never complain about pulling framed autographs (or framed relics).
All told, Box 2 was solid but it really didn't have much of a chance to beat what I pulled in the first box! That said, I rarely pull Brooklyn back minis - and I've never pulled a Red Foil Filigree before, so this box did offer up some cool stuff as well!
