Because I care - 2006 Topps Heritage checklist in Excel

ToppsHeritageLover · February 20, 2006 11:15AM

I took the heritage checklist excel file from mudflap's site and added the 2006 set to it. I also cleaned up some stuff (stripped team names, added 2004 SP's that were missing, deleted 1 of 1's) from previous years.

I have marked 2006 SP's based on rumors and leaked checklists - it will most likely need updating once the product gets released.

All I need is someone to host the file for ease of download as I do not have a web site setup. Any volunteers?

mudflap02 · February 20, 2006 11:49AM

Email it to me and I'll update my site with the new spreadsheet. One of these days I'm going to get around to updating some of the other years, but it's just one of those things I say I'll do and probably never will.

Thanks for making the new one-

Is this the original spread sheets that John Basilone did?

Update? Wow!

Jay

Thanx for taking the time!

You're a true asset to the board here!!

Heritage collectors are appreciative and we salute you!!!

Stone,
Yes, this is based on the original from John Basilone. I was planning on creating a whole Heritage fan web site but work has eaten up all my time lately. Maybe someday in the future I will but for now the xls update will have to do.

Mudflap,
I have emailed you the file. Once it is available at your site please post a link in this thread.
Thanks for hosting it!
Regards,
Jay

Is it too early for the heritage museum? Maybe someone could bring that back.

Sure!

Kevin, you're autos from the 52T set are off the chart!

mudflap02 · February 20, 2006 1:30PM

Should be up in a second.

Kevin - always a great time for the Heritage museum! Feel free to start a thread and I'll join in with what I have scanned. I'm about 6 months behind, but I hope to get a new scanner tomorrow.

Hi,
I tried clicking on the link for the 2006 Topps Heritage checklist in Excel and I received a message saying that I could not download it.

Please let me know what I did wrong.

Thanks,
Brian

HoofHearted · February 21, 2006 10:30AM

Great! I had a problem opening the xls file yesterday, but tonight it worked!

Thanks for the effort in putting it together.

It's been fun completing sets pack-by-pack again!

ArnyVee · February 21, 2006 10:35AM

Can't wait for my 1/2 case!

joestalin · February 21, 2006 10:45AM

How is card #7 NOT Mantle or Arod? Cmon topps!

Kevin

Pharber · February 21, 2006 11:39AM

There is a method to Topps madness. I just started collecting the 1957 set (yes, call it Heritage envy) and I can see why Uribe is No. 7 instead of Mantle. In the '57 set Luis Aparicio, another White Sox shortstop was No. 7. Mantle was No. 95 and guess what, ARod is No. 95. It's more than a coincidence.

They are plenty of others like that, such as No. 1 David Ortiz this year and another Red Sox slugger in 1957.

ToppsHeritageLover · February 21, 2006 12:01PM

Guys,
Maybe some of you can help me out. I am looking for sell sheets for Heritage from previous years. I have the 2006 ones from Georgetown's site but I need anything you can send me from 2001 to 2005. If you have some hard copy ones let me know as well.
Thanks,
Jay

jsgebo@yahoo.com

joestalin · February 21, 2006 1:25PM

its great to have real 57 collectors! Please keep the comments and comparisons coming, Im glad Topps did their homework.

Two questions:

1. Are all the active players who have cards in the "then and now" set, listed as SP's in the base set?

2. Who are the rookies?

Thanks
Kevin

TNP777 · February 21, 2006 2:36PM

pharber has always been a fountain of info when comparing Heritage sets to the real set. IIRC, he had a pretty lengthy comparison writeup on last years. Great job on that research.

BTW, pharber - I've got some ratty dupes somewhere around here. If you're not condition sensitive, LMK. I'm 17 cards away from completing my '57 set, with the Kubek RC the only key card missing. It might grade out as a collective 2, no better. Beautiful set, even in the well-loved condition it's in. The dream has almost been realized!

Kevin, I never did get back to you last summer regarding the 2001 & 2002 empty hobby boxes. Did you still have any of those?

Geordie

mudflap02 · February 21, 2006 3:07PM

Geordie-

Craig Parker has a complete run of empty Heritage boxes on the bay right now.

TNP777 · February 21, 2006 3:45PM

I saw those, Jeff - ready his post over on the Topps board. They're on my watchlist, but then I remembered having a conversation last summer with Kevin. Forgot all about it til now.

Geordie

Pharber · February 21, 2006 5:10PM

hi geordie,
I consider you a good trader - we made some good Heritage swaps last year - and i'd be interested in trading. I have about 150-170 '57s right now. All commons. I'm in the VG-EX ball park for condition. It's a funny set. There are the star cards -- plenty of them -- and the scarce middle series that account for more than half the set.

What are you looking for in trade if any of your doubles fill my needs?

More importantly, I'm about to put the 1957s aside and clear the decks for the new Heritage cards.

I can only focus on one collection at a time. For the last three months I've been obsessed with the 1958 Topps set (you know your obsessed when you can rattle off the entire checklist). I finished the set and upgraded it to NRMT.

But now it's Heritage time!

Whomever put together the checklist, thanks. I downloaded it and will use it (Aside: Whatever happened to John Basilone? I hiberate from the hobby when golf season begins in New England and I haven't seen him on the boards. He is a true Heritage Hall of Famer.)

As for the similarities between the 1957 set and the upcoming Heritage release, there are many.

jackstraw · February 21, 2006 9:35PM

I looked 3 times and I don't see Ken Griffey Jr. ? Does this mean there will be a series 2?

ArchStanton · February 21, 2006 9:35PM

Are the SPs a middle series like in the original set?

TNP777 · February 21, 2006 11:32PM

jackstraw - no Griffeys, no series 2

archstanton - no mid-series SPs; they are all mostly high numbers - starting at 396. Also some variations: 1, 20, 23, 80, 95, 200, 212, 325, 350, 450.

Geordie

ToppsHeritageLover · February 22, 2006 1:55AM

No griffey this year but they do have Hideki Matsui for the first time. Weird, Griffey being ommitted is bizarre. Is there some kind of legal thing going on with that?

mudflap02 · February 22, 2006 5:52AM

Very strange about Griffey.

As for the Alex Gordon cards, I wouldn't be surprised if the were issued at a later date.

mudflap02 · February 22, 2006 6:09AM

Mmmmm and new scanner tonight. I have some catching up to do......

Basilone · February 23, 2006 2:02AM

you guys are a bunch of heritage geeks....heh.

In regards to the 2006 v. 1957 similarities...you should email them to T.S. O'Connell....he ususally does a story about Heritage each year. I was mentioned in his article last year.

Stone193 · February 23, 2006 2:19AM

Hi John
Good to see you back!

Are you going to do the heritage set this year?

I'm going to keep it "rational" this year - no THC set e.g.

Looking forward to you being around during the "hunt for heritage" period.

Stalin will be "hoarding" boxes in the pillow section of Target!

I'll be trading but not as OCD as other years.

Again, good to see you.
mike

StarWarsFan2003 · February 23, 2006 2:49AM

Im extremely happy to see all the die-hard Heritage collectors up and about this year with the 2006 version of '57. I won't be going crazy like last year (3 cases), but I will be making the set box by box. best of luck to all, and glad to see Mudflap is still using my old Excel Heritage checklist

Stalin and Mud, make sure you keep me in the loop with trades this year, and hopefully I'll be able to trade with all the rest of you also. Best of luck guys, mojo to all!

PS Do we have official confirmation that the SP's listed are actually the ones we will be getting? I hated having to sort my cards and try to find the variations last year

Also, I do hope the Alex Gordon card doesnt get inserted like it did in Series 1 of Topps '06, because we will really have a chase on our hands to get that one to complete the set. Talk about bid wars with Heritage collectors!

Basilone · February 23, 2006 5:03AM

Stone-

I do not think that Im going to collect Heritage this year

. With a 9 month old and my wife staying at home..I just do not have the extra $$$ to do it. Last year..I was totally OCD with it. I completed everything except the autos, black chromes, and cut signatures. I was buying multiple copies of chromes and refractors to find the nicest copy...I also multiple copies of the Hawaii Trade Show promos for ones with the best centering and selling off the rest.

Knopfler · February 26, 2006 9:36PM

Can someone email me the 2006 Heritage checklist? I can access the webpage on the link. Thanks. My email is knopflers@yahoo.com

Pharber · February 27, 2006 5:57AM

Can somebody fix the checklist. Massive changes are needed.
SPs in the mid-series area, just like 1957
At least they got Johnny Damon and Edgar Renteria in the correct uniforms
and the Red Sox team card is the only team card that is an SP!

Buccaneer · March 3, 2006 10:27AM

What do the cards in bold means?

lowstartmick · March 3, 2006 10:36AM

The list is FUBAR. I think a correct one can be found in the other thread.
