The card finally arrived.
I think I like the salute shot. I might have preferred something from one of Jeter's signature moments, but I think the wave to the crowd works well from the end of of his career.
I thought the back was well done. I like the accolades beyond traditional stats, and how they are represented with objects, like stars and trophies. The subtle shot of Jeter int he background at his HOF press conference was a nice touch.
I can't remember if Topps does NOW cards from HOF induction speeches, but if so I'll likely grab that one as well.
They did do them for the inductions speeches last year (see https://www.amazon.com/2017-Topps-Baseball-Rodriguez-Induction/dp/B074WK6FBY for example).
ReplyDeleteNice to see Topps actually putting some effort into a card back for an online offering!
Cool card. I'm not usually a guy who chases Topps Now cards, but this one would be cool to add to the Jeter collection.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. Even though its a Yankees player, it's a really attractive card.
