    @tempo_n_groove Talk to me about this one in your post. That looks like the S2 SP but with a vintage stock logo?

    Edit: I see you have a few. Were they also in S2?


    The clean pants and white long sleeved SP is in series 2 only.  This one is from the update.  Almost similar pose which I thought was dumb.  But yes this is the Vintage stock /99.

    I wanted to clarify this more.  The image above is the update, its the same pic for all of the variants.  The Update SP is the mullet.  The SSP is him holding a bat.

    This is the SP from Series 2.  Its the ONLY version from series 2.
    Oh cripes I didn’t realize those images were so similar. (I am not at all a fan of the whole SP RC in S2 but also RC in Update move they pull.)

    Topps likes to throw in an easter egg sometimes.  Like the NNO Vlad rc or the late edition Ohtani.  Series 2 can be fun like that when they have an SP rc hunt.

    Funny story about the Witt.  Buddy of mine and i went to the National in Atlantic City.  I was searching for 3 cards and didnt find any of them there.  The prices were inflated so we decided to rip some new product.  We went to Dave and Adams and they gave us cash deals on boxes so we bought 6.  He 2 and me 4.  We got 5 SP's from those boxes.  Witt, Mountcastle, Jackie Robinson, Abrahms and Jrod.  I was pissed because I wanted the Jrod.  It was a $1300 card in a PSA 10.  My buddy and I graded them and we got all 10's back.  I implored him to sell that Jrod.  He held tight.  He sold it last year for a buck20...  I kept the Witt.  Glad I did.
