As many of you remember, Topps made extremely rare cards with a real diamond embedded within them. There is one available for every base card within the 2011 Topps Baseball flagship set, and from time to time a Dodger shows up on eBay. In the past, I had ran across the James Loney and Hong-Chih Kuo cards (see those post
here and
here), but had yet to find a true Dodger superstar. Well, that search is now over. Check out the Clayton Kershaw 2011 Topps "1 of 1" Diamond Embedded Baseball card below. Now, all I have to do is scrap together $500 bucks.
See the auction here.
Sure beats a plain white jersey swatch!
ReplyDeleteThe Star company did the same thing with some of there sets in the 80's.
ReplyDeletewha......? Why is this the first i'm hearing of this?
DeleteWere they the company that made individual players sets that were sealed in bags?
