Part of the reason for more inserts was the Topps 60th anniversary. The "Cards Your Mom Threw Out" set was popular, and it had both insert back and original back cards. Of course, Topps had to repeat the set the following year. Attax and Toppstown also added several cards.
So far, from 2010 - 2014, I've got 128 Cubs inserts. That's over 30 more than any previous decade, and there are still five more years to go! I'm going to guess I'll end up with over 200 by the end of 2019.
Here's a look at the 128 cards...

Not sure if you have them already and that's why they are not pictured, but just in case, I noticed a few you were missing.
ReplyDeleteRyno has a Cut to the Chase like that Banks card, too and the Wood and Rizzo Chasing History cards each have a Silver and Gold Holofoil parallel as well.
Hope that helps.
