In April Topps released their Gypsy Queen set, but it didn't include a Yasiel Puig card. This isn't surprising since he had yet to play a Major League game and only current players are allowed in their MLB card sets.
Well, over the weekend, Topps decided to fix that. They announced on twitter a new limited edition Puig Gypsy Queen card that can only be had at the upcoming National Sports Collectors Convention in Chicago. All you have to do is go to the Topps booth with a box of their 2013 WBC Tribute cards, and open them up in their presence. In return, you get the above Puig card.

This figures on being one of his scarcest cards of the year. Only 100 cards per day of the show will be given out. Since the show runs from Wednesday to Sunday this week only 500 cards have been made.
Puig Cards are limited to 1 per person per day AND we will only have 100 per day to distribute! Looking forward to the National!
