last year, steve garvey was included on the topps gypsy queen relic checklist, and this year he makes the jump to the big time, 2013 topps allen & ginter! no base card, though, just a bat relic
it's a super short print, too. i think that the card is fantastic. perfect, even. topps used a great early photo of the garv. it's just too bad that there is not a base card, too. i realize that there are a lot of dodgers on the checklist already, but i would have been ok with a garvey card instead of another duke snider or even chad billingsley card. another dodger not included in the base set, but with a relic card in this year's release is zack greinke
pretty sure he's been airbrushed into a dodger hat there.
i picked up both of these relics in a 25-relic lot for about $65. although there have been a couple of other garvey cards that went for less than $30 and a couple that sold in the $50 range, i think that i probably will do ok once i liquidate the rest of the relics.
before i do that, is anybody looking for any relics in particular? other than the garvey, of course.

Depends. Whatcha got in that lot? Cuz I am sure it's looooooooaded with ChiSox. (rolls eyes)
I think this might be the first year that I end up with no A&G relics. They're so uninspiring.
(this doesn't mean that no one one can send me any).
I have only seen one on ebay so far. it was a $50 obo that went for $25. Did I miss others?
