I really like the 2011 Topps 60 Relics. It started when I pulled the Cano from a Jumbo pack. Since then, I've been trying to acquire the other Yankees in this set (minus Babe Ruth, Gerhig, etc). Outside of the useless foil print which doesn't pop against the background at all, I think they are nice cards and I love where the relic is placed. I picked up my fourth Yankee in this set, grabbing a CC Sabathia on the cheap.
It's my first CC relic of any kind, so I'm pretty happy with it. I'd love to grab a CC relic with a pinstripe, but for now, I'm loving this card.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
Congrats! I'm going to start that set myself soon.
