Nice little retro pack to open.. I never really had, nor currently have, many of the Topps Big cards so I find them a little interesting to open. Found a little box of baseball cards for $5 at a garage sale and looks like it has a few packs of these and a bunch of loose ones mixed in with other various late 80's/early 90's cards. Although they are interesting, I have never been a fan of these oversized cards - they seem so much easier to damage since most things designed for your average card do not accommodate these well.  But the price was right and I'm also game for anything I don't have, whatever that may be. I'm a hopeless completionist.
