Case Break Results: 2011 Topps Finest
Last night we opened a case of 2011 Topps Finest baseball and it was pretty fun. There were a good variety of team hits, with the Braves coming out with the most hits. Overall, I think the product had some good autographs in it. Check out the cards from the break below.

What do you guys think of the results from a case of this “high end” Topps product? Quality of players/hits? I’m curious to see what everyone thinks of the rookie selection.
I think it was a very solid catch. The patch numbered to 10 and the Utly to 20 were very nice. The Trout and Moose autos are tops. A great selection of star recractors and xfractors to round it out.
The Royals kinda killed it, the two Moose autos and the Hosmer green are very solid.
I am happy with my Revere refractor and the two Muaer 'fractors.
Well, I got shut out on the Dodgers. Seems like Finest is all Braves, Yankees, Phillies and Red Sox.
But I always like Finest. Don't care about rookies, but love shiny.
I liked the barking background music, too. 😉
You weren't kidding when you said the Braves did well! Awesome stuff!
The Mike Trout X-fractor auto will coming to a milk carton near you soon.
Shortly after the break ended Mr. Trout was Fish-napped!!
I've seen two blog case breaks now and glad I missed out on the Rangers in both times.
Certainly a better break on Finest than I had a year or two ago when I pulled doubles of the same patch/auto card of… umm… anyone remember? lol
