There is something that shows was was wrong about the baseball card companies attempts to try 'something new'. That was the 1995 Topps Embossed set. Even the inclusion of a GOLD fail (sorry foil) card in each pack didn't ignite the collecting world. I was looking for cards that I had never opened and purchased 5 packs of these cards.
There are 140 cards in the base set.
There are gold and silver variations of the base cards.
There are a parallel set called Golden Idols, gold naturally.
