We have being seeing tons of low numbered cards being pulled lately and the rarity of the contest entries makes it tough for us to vote on.

A lot of cool stuff has come out of it so far (no bat barrels yet) and the overall design of the card is leaving customers happy. The happiest one of all however is Curtis, who ended up pulling something big;

2012 Topps Tier One Bryce Harper On The Rise Autograph.

The card will be serial numbered but there is no indication of what it will be #’d to. Curtis will certainly come in and show us once he gets it back from Topps.

Awesome pull Curtis – Show us that Autograph once you get it back from Topps!!
