Heritage

This 20-card set is done in the style of the 1953 Topps set. At the time of the product's release, collectors responded well to the 1953-style paintings of artist James Fiorentino. Gallery Heritage would set the stage for the retro-themed products that would drive The Hobby in the early 2000s.

Hank Aaron, who did not appear in the 53 Topps set, has a card in this set, with the other 19 of contemporary players.

A Heritage Proof parallel printed on foil-fronted polystyrene cardstock is also available.
