    I’ve recently fell in love with the Gridiron Kings inserts. They aren’t super rare or pricey, but I love the look and feel of the canvas style card and the beautiful artwork.

    TSC Illuminators from the 90's are extremely rare that most people aren't even aware of them! With print runs of around 200 or less depending on the year, they are one of the rarest inserts. Awesome if you can land a goat such as jordan, kobe, etc.

The tough odds is what will make the new inserts desirable.
