As most of us know, these box toppers from 2013 Heritage are a wee see-through. For the box he opened for pack sales, he saved this for me for being "the resident Braves guy".
Oooohhh..... who could it be? I flipped over to the back, and could see a partial number. 50?
I could only see the first two digits. Could it be #500?? Topps puts stars on those even numbers! Could it be Hank Aaron?!?! Was Hank #500?!??!
Open it!!!
No.
It was not #500.
It was not Hank Aaron.
It was.....
This baby is warped, has a few creases, and has no idea what the word 'corner' means. It's almost oval.
HOWEVER.
I happen to need this card for my Braves team set. So it will fit nicely in my binder until a replacement without that gold shield comes along.
And I think..... card #506 was card #1 of the sixth series of seven in 1964. So it's kind of a high number. Someone may no better... let me know.
Either way, it's ALWAYS a good day to add a '64 Brave to the old collection.
Thanks Darren!

It's no Aaron... but it's still pretty sweet (especially since it's a freebie). It's nice to see dealers taking care of their customers. Congratulations.
