Looks like some great cards, but I really wish Topps would make an all non-sport set--leave the sports cards to the sports sets!

And as far as "one of the greatest historical autographed cards to date", nah, I don't see it. And I'm not crazy about the presidential mess going into it, either.

But that's just me...

With so few of some our older presidents signatures still in existence its a shame to see that at least one of the remaining ones has been cut up and put into a card. Conversely however, it is nice to see an average guy be able to own something so historic, though they probably won't appreciate it.

The rest of the set looks really cool.

There are enough signatures available from just about every president - and if there ever was a product that warrants their inclusion- it should be this one - and not in any of the other multitude of products that are currently out there. I'm not singling out any company here - since everyone is pretty culpable in this regard

Maybe--I'd think the Razor Presidential Cuts would fit that bill, but the costs are waaaaay out of reach for 99% of the collecting population. But then more people have heard of Topps as opposed to Razor, too.

When I think of American Heritage I think more along the lines of the American Pie set released a few years ago.
