2009 Allen & Ginter

PING: Back with a little more vintage for you. Lovin’ the Allen & Ginter series, but this one falls a little flat for me. I love the ultra-clean look of the first two years. While this is a nice nod to the 1880s N16 set from which the design was derived from, it’s just not my favorite of the A&G series. That said, it’s a vintage look and that usually trumps most of the modern sets for me.
Not the best pic of Joey and the watercolor background doesn’t work for me either.
Did I ever send you a 2008 Topps Chrome National Convention Votto? If not, let me know and I will get one to you.
