Topps is putting the wraps on the 2009 baseball card year with a post-season release of its Sterling issue, one that includes a healthy list of cut signatures.
The season has been over for two months but don’t put a ribbon on the 2009 collecting season just yet. Topps Sterling Baseball will be hitting the market shortly.
The company says this year’s version of the high end product will include “ten extra hits” and a guaranteed cut signature per case. Among the cards collectors will be chasing is a sharp-looking Albert Pujols Season Auto Relic.
