Probable nightmare to go through. 12 Box 1991 Topps Micro case.

Have read before that the sets are not in numerical order and the cards are upside down or other backwardness. Chipper in 10 is basically it.

A must be ripped product.

    My sister gave my son a 93T mini set back in 1995 or so along with what I think is the "Broder" of Mantle pins.

    Should be fun.

    Hey, maybe you'll get a Thomas NNOF?

    They are at least more colorful than the Topps 48 Magic Photos and the 55 and 56 Hocus Focus cards

    Topps Baseball-1948, 1951 to 2017
    Bowman Baseball -1948-1955
    Fleer Baseball-1923, 1959-2007

    Stone,, this ain't mini, It's Micro. From 91.

    This is actual torture. I think I'd rather shove hot pine needles under my toe nails while simultaneously melting the top of the nails with a blow torch than continue going through these. But I must as they all deserve release and a possible swim.

    Box One:
    The cards are not in numerical order, are not hand maneuver slidable like normal cards, are not all rightside up, are stuck a little together where each and every Oscar Azocar type card needs to be separated from whatever card is next to i..... AND.. when I found the first one in the first box .. has off center Wood Chippers !

    Evil. Sensing Satan may be involved here,

    I ripped a bunch of those awhile ago and found quality control to be a beast. Most off center and as you said, just thrown into the box in no order whatsoever. Good luck with the rip.

    Always looking for OPC "tape intact" baseball wax boxes, and 1984 OPC baseball PSA 10's for my set. Please PM or email me if you have any available.

    Agreed. I opened several sets a year or so ago. Best part was that the Chipper is in the same spot in every set. Worst part, didn't get a single one decently centered. Probably the reason the PSA 10's go for so much!

    Must have gotten lucky with the Chipper being in the same box position. Just horrifically went through another box and the Chipper was like 2 inches of micro cards away from the first box location. Also, off center. so this 'case' is toast.

    Had forgotten about these two cards in this set. Two of the best cards of the 90's in my personal opinion. The Carlton card, to this day, I think is the best live action shot that has ever existed on a card. The Boggs, just cool art,
