2006 Topps Allen & Ginter

2006 Topps Allen & Ginter hobby box

Description

Considered by many to possibly be the best baseball product of 2006, and winner of Beckett Baseball's Product of the Year for 2006, packs of Topps' first Allen & Ginter set were gobbled up by collectors shortly after release. Prices soared above Topps' suggested retail price as the hits just kept coming. Part of the appeal of Allen & Ginter, was a strong lineup of major league players joined by superstar athletes from other sports -- all in keeping with the spirit of the original Allen & Ginter sets.

The autographs, parallels, and game-used inserts were all outstanding, but the real prize were the controversial Rip cards. The Rip cards, which contained another miniature-sized card embedded inside the main card, were seeded at the rate of one-per-case. In order to get the mini-card, collectors had to "Rip" open (thereby destroying) the Rip card. Inside the rip cards would be either an autographed mini, a special limited mini, a unique Dick Perez sketch or an original 1887 Allen and Ginter N28 card.

As of January 2008, hobby boxes are available for $180-$225.

Distribution

24 packs per box, 7 cards per pack

Each waxbox should yield two of the following (on average): Framed Autographs, Framed Relics, Printing Plates, and/or Allen & Ginter Original cards. Each case will include an exclusive Rip Card which may contain a repurchased Allen & Ginter card.

Each Hobby Box is packed with an exclusive Box Loader which would yield either: an N-43, N-43 Relic, N-43 Autograph, Postcard, or personalized Autographed Postcard.

N-43

As a tribute to the orginal Allen and Ginter sets, a special group of cards were inserted as box toppers. The cards' dimension are the same measurements as the original 1888 Allen and Ginter N43 cards and are modeled in the same style. Each hobby box had either an N43 or a Postcard card inserted as a box topper.

Postcards

Two different types of cards were inserted into the hobby boxes of 2006 Allen and Ginter as a box topper. Each box would contain either a postcard box topper or a N43 box topper. The post cards measure approximately the same dimensions as a standard US postal service post card. The card fronts feature a black and white picture from a location that would be associated with the player. The card back feature a short message from the player and a facsimile signature. The "stamp" of the post card features a small portrait picture of the player.

Dick Perez Sketch Cards

The Dick Perez Sketch cards were inserted at a rate of nearly 1 per pack. Perez has a long history of drawing ballplayer portraits for card manufacturers, dating back to the early 1980's in Donruss. Topps called for his drawings to be too small and fine thus losing much of their majesty and detail.

As stated, these cards were seeded into any pack that did not contain a relic, autograph or rip card. The cards are printed on thicker cardstock, thereby doubling as a decoy.

As with the old Diamond King issues in 1990's Donruss, one player from each team is featured on a card, thus a 30 card set.

Original Sketches

Inserted into Rip cards in 2006 Allen and Ginter, these cards are the original sketches drawn by Dick Perez that were used for the regular insert. Each one is completely unique and serial numbered 1/1.

Rip Cards

Although not entirely a new concept (see 1998 Zenith) 2006 Allen & Ginter saw the introduction of the Rip cards. The cards were designed to be torn open and had a second mini card embedded inside. The mini card would either be an autographed mini, a limited gray back mini, an original Dick Perez sketch (1/1) or an original buy-back Allen and Ginter card from 1887.

The cards were seeded at approximately 1 per hobby case or 1:265 packs. There were 50 total rip cards with print runs varying from 10 - 99. A checklist with the print runs is shown below. It should be highlighted that the prices in the Beckett price guide are for ripped cards that have had the inside card removed. Unripped cards carry a much higher premium, if you can even find one at all.

When Allen and Ginter was first released the demand for these cards was sky-high. Thus the price on these cards was significantly higher than other sets that had similarly serial numbered cards.

Although rarely seen on the secondary market anymore, these cards still demand a high premium. A ripped copy of #RIP2 Dontrelle Willis (#7/10) sold on EBay in January 2008 for $55. A ripped copy of #RIP35 Albert Pujols (8/99) was sold on EBay in Jan, 2008 for $10.

Autographs & Game-Used

Framed Autographs

39 players were featured in an Autographed set. The players autographed mini cards of themselves that were than placed inside a frame similar to the frames that the relic and A&G originals were set in. The autographed cards were inserted in different groups at different rates.

Insertion Odds

   * GROUP A ODDS 1:2467 H, 1:3850 R
   * GROUP B ODDS 1:14,500 H, 1:32,000 R
   * GROUP C ODDS 1:2200 H, 1:4300 R
   * GROUP D ODDS 1:548 H, 1:1090 R
   * GROUP E ODDS 1:473 H, 1:1000 R
   * GROUP F ODDS 1:250 H, 1:520 R
   * GROUP G ODDS 1:158 H, 1:299 R

Print Run

The print runs for each group were provided by Topps. None of the cards are serial numbered.

Although Brian Roberts, Felix Hernandez and Zach Duke were all advertised by Topps as being included in this set, it is now believed that these cards were not actually produced. These cards are not included in the Beckett Collections or OPG listing for the set.

Red Ink

Two players, Alex Rodriguez and David Wright, also signed 10 cards each in red ink. These cards were also randomly inserted into packs. The cards are not serial numbered.

Framed Relics

Inserted at varying rates based on different grouping, 50 relic cards were also inserted into the Allen and Ginter packs. Included along with the baseball game used relics were two cards featuring a necktie worn by George W. Bush and a sweater worn by John F. Kennedy. Both of these cards are extremely rare. However, it should be noted that the Mantle jersey relic is no more rare than the Huston Street or Travis Hafner cards.

N-43 Autographs

Two autographed N43's were inserted as box toppers.

Barry Bonds and Alex Rodriguez both signed 10 cards and these were inserted at a rate of 1:1970 hobby boxes.

These cards are extremely rare and do not have listed prices in Beckett printed or OPG.

The Bonds card has sold for $700 and the Rodriguez for $420 - $480

N-43 Relics

Two Relics N43's were inserted as box toppers.

An Albert Pujols uniform relic and a Josh Gibson bat relic were inserted at a rate of 1:1379 hobby boxes.

Each card was serial numbered to 50.

Personalized Postcards

Two different types of cards were inserted into the hobby boxes of 2006 Allen and Ginter as a box topper. Each box would contain either a postcard box topper or a N43 box topper. The post cards measure approximately the same dimensions as a standard US postal service post card. The card fronts feature a black and white picture from a location that would be associated with the player. The card backs feature a short message from the player, hand written by the player with a signature. The "stamp" of the post card features a small portrait picture of the player.

The Mickey Mantle card is signed by his son David.

The odds of pulling a personalized postcard was 1:3000 hobby boxes. Each personalized postcard is a unique 1/1. The Gary Carter appeared on Ebay in January 2007 and sold for $320. The David Wright was reportedly sold for $1325 in 2006 (Source - Beckett Baseball, Oct. 2006, Issue #259)
