2009 NFL Topps Chrome Preview
Got in the press release from Topps on their 2009 Topps Chrome line for the NFL. A few things I noticed in the press release that I am hoping to be the case when the cards are released. They have done away with any Superfractors that are not 1/1’s and replaced the /10 variations with Red Refractors. Also the image that was sent of a Mark Sanchez autograph is photoshopped as an on card autograph. If last years had been on card I know I would have gone a lot harder after Kevin O’Connell rookies, or how valuable would an Adrian Peterson Chrome on card autographed Super numbered to 10 be? Good move Topps!! (I take all this back if it is a clear sticker and just photoshopped to look on card….)
Topps makes Magic with Jackie
JACKIE ROBINSON TO APPEAR IN ALL-NEW TOPPS MAGIC FOOTBALL
On the heels of announcing it would recreate college themed Topps Magic Football, one of its first ever sports card releases, Topps is pleased to now announce it has added a very important subject to the product…Jackie Robinson, Running Back, UCLA.
Robinson entered UCLA in 1939 where he would become the first athlete in school history to letter in four sports…Football, Baseball, Basketball and Track. And before breaking baseball’s color barrier, Jackie played semi-professional football for both the Honolulu Bears and the Los Angeles Bulldogs.
Topps is randomly inserting this limited edition card into packs of 2009 Topps Magic Football, which ships June 18th. Each hobby box guarantees 3 Autographs.
