But these are new people in charge and if the old bosses were inert about their own Topps history, the Fanatics people have even less of a sense of it.

OTOH I literally have a hundred or more great images from this Brace lot to process and post and two of them are Washburn with the '70 Reds. This is actually good news because he was on the first list I took in to Topps in 2002 and there was no Washburn file at all. The filing system was incomplete after the letter T.
If I could wave a magic wand they'd hand the whole shebang over to the Hall of Fame.

Of course, a) I don't have a magic wand; and b) if I did I'd be needed elsewhere.
