Since Trumbo is having a hot spring, I thought I would just share a little info in case someone was seeking out his 2005 Bowman Red 1/1.

Back in the day I busted 3 cases of 2005 Bowman on release and pulled his 1/1 Bowman Red Border (See scan below). It was in a pack with another 1/1, literally stuck to the one in front of it (the Walters Red 1/1...yuck). As you can see in the scan at the top where it says "1st Bowman Card" the Trumbo was damaged out of the pack. I contacted Topps at the time and since it was a 1/1 they could not replace the card, so they sent a 1/1 replacement (The Garret Mock Red 1/1 Auto).

I figured I'd save someone the time searching for it since there appears to be some renewed interest in Trumbo.

It's kind of odd they wouldn't replace it given that we've seen multiple copies of each Red from various years appear on ebay that were backdoored, meaning that multiples were printed.

Has the 2004 SP Platinum made it's way back into the market? I was the high bidder back when it first sold, then the "it never arrived from Japan" story started. I'd love to see where it ended up at this point.

Cool story, just shows us collectors how Topps doesnt put all the 1/1's in the products if they could send you that 1/1 auto as a replacement

Makes me think the Longoria is being held in a vault at Topps headquarters in reserve for when they have to right a catastrophic screw up. Let the conspiracy continue...

Good point, I'd love to hear Topps response to why a 1/1 would be held out of packaging

Might want to change the title and op to 2006. I still think it would bring in a good amount being a 1/1.
