Ugly SP

2012 SP Signature Edition was not an attractive set.  Sure you had lots of big names and the promise of 8 autos a box, but they were all stickers.  I cherry picked a lot of the Pirate because the price was right and the checklist was full of guys who didn't have many certified autos.  Pedro Alvarez, Casey Mcgehee and Colton Cain were all represented in the set.

This Gerrit Cole/James Taillon dual auto was an impulse buy last year because of the price.  Taillon and Cole have other dual autos together that can go for pretty big amounts.  This card was purchased for around $40-50 if my memory serves me correctly.  Pretty cheap price for two first round picks and hand numbered to ten. I guess if you can say one positive thing about the set is that it is somewhat of a bargain now.  I think the price has fell all the way down to $85.  I think that is more than half the original cost at debut.  For those who do group breaks this might be an interesting choice.
