It Is Wonderful When A Company Gets It Right

 

Every so often you come across a unique and limited card that is so awesome that you would consider selling your first born, well maybe not your child, but you know where this is going. A perfect example was last year’s 2014 Topps Archives Major League Ricky Vaughn autographs.

This year it seems like the attention will be turned towards 2015 Topps Allen & Ginter’s with the inclusion of Sylvester Stallone and Hulk Hogan autographs, which are both popular pulls but Topps takes it one step further by making the cards Rocky Balboa and Thunderlips from Rocky III, my favorite of the Rocky films.

The ultimate male versus the ultimate meatball!

イチローの 署名 (Ichiro's Signature)

Ichiro will be appearing on a Topps card for the first time in 3 years when he is included on the checklist for the 2015 Allen & Ginter’s release coming out in July. He even signed for Topps, the first time he has done that, with his autographs appearing in Supreme, Triple Threads, Five Star, Dynasty and High Tek as well as A&G.

Ichiro’s signature has never been a thing of beauty but people seem to be more worked up about what Topps is packing out this year. What is your input?

 

I will never get used to seeing Ichiro in a Miami uniform
