This happens all the time. If you guys saw the process of how these sets come together, you might well be shocked at the haphazard-ness of it all. It takes time to cross-reference excel spreadsheets, ya know?

Chris Johnson had three "1st Bowman" cards from 2008-2009

This made me so mad I just punched my dog in the snout and then swung my cat by the tail and threw her against the wall. I am going to write a STRONGLY worded letter to Topps right this second. I just hope the rage subsides before I go to work tomorrow or there will be many a face being being pulled from my fist.

I think it would be okay if it said that on his autographed card, but this doesn't make any sense..

Did the same thing with Taillon, his 2010 USA card and 2011 Bowman Chrome Auto both had the logo. It's mind-boggling how stupid they are.

Depends if Topps can manage to find the same day-laborers at the Home Depot from year to year.

When I worked there it was, but we did things by memory because we couldn't be bothered to actually cross-reference stuff.

Oh, and we smoked a lot of weed (though only after work, at least in my case).

Two different product lines = 2 different 1st Chrome cards.

2009 - Bowman w/ Chrome

2011 - Bowman Chrome

and yes... if he has a 2011 Bowman Chrome Draft... you could see yet another 1st Chrome card.

:: puts down Topps Employee Bong ::


Bro, last year was a long long time ago....

You got it pretty well, but the employee bong was off site. And a year felt like several while working there...

I still carry that 03 Topps Bong/Puffer card in my wallet.
