Allen and Ginter 2016
24 packs - 8 cards per pack
3 HITS in every box!
I received these:
128 unique base cards - 42.6% of the 300 card base
As in the past, Allen and Ginter World Champions features not only baseball's greatest but the World's Champions in various disciplines. The cards are vanilla in color and follow the design of previous year's issues.
One can find interesting individuals to read about - such as Steve Schirripa, Michelle Steele, Leigh Steinberg, Cord McCoy to name just a few.
I also received 12 short print cards - #ed 301 to 350.
Included in each pack are mini cards. Some of these have A&G ad backs and some have a black border.

Allen and Ginter is an issue that set builders chase each year. This year is no different. One will need 3-6 boxes to possibly complete the set with lots left over to trade or even possibly get a great head start on the mini set.
Relic / memorabilia collectors should also enjoy A&G.
Overall grade A
Go buy several boxes to see what little mysteries you might uncover or what tidbits of info you may learn about someone!
