Damn that's a super nice pull. I was talking to the guy down at the shop today for a good half hour and he was telling a bunch of stories. Was really cool to listen to.

Are those the Mantle refractors that are based on the 1952 card set?

I got this in the same box that I got the Castro.

Spoiler

On card auto based on the '52 set.

I really liked the 2011 Topps Lineage set, I have a full base set of that. This years newest product (just released yesterday I think) is the 2013 Topps Heritage based on the 1964 Topps set. Next years will be based on the '65. I do like the way that they are going back and paying tribute to those designs -- they're classic.

Can't wait to see what others here have.
