1995 Topps Embossed

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.
