2015 "Ginter X" Offshoot Cards

I'm sure I blathered in this space before about how I completed all of the SF Giants Topps Heritage team sets, right? And how I was then going to move on and do the same for all of their Allen & Ginter team sets, from 2006 to the present? We talked about that, right?

Little did I know that there was something lurking out there called "Ginter X" that's potentially even more tantalizing. Black versions of the A&G base sets, with extras and whatnot thrown in. Well that just complicates things, doesn't it? Which isn't to say I'm not all aboard in trying to scoop them up.

I'm a fan of black-bordered anything. It's why I love the Topps 1971 design so much - and the 2020 Heritage majors and minors that followed that design. I've started pulling together a few from the 2007 SP Legendary Cuts series, which I'll blog about shortly.

Anyway, I decided to just go out there and grab each of the 2015 SF Giants cards from the Topps Allen & Ginter "Ginter X" series. I'm quite fond of 'em, and I hope you are as well.

    Those look great! I'm not a huge Ginter fan, but I think those look better than the regular base.

    those do look sharp. well done by topps to use images with the black jerseys, too.

    A parallel A&G set like this one has no reason to exist, but even I'll admit these are pretty cool.
