I recently republished a piece titled Collecting Bobby Thomson and The Shot Heard Round The World Game, but I missed something! In the spring of 1992, Topps Magazine gave away 25 1991 Bowman “The Shot” cards signed by Thomson and Branca.
I found the following example, with gold signatures like in the ad, for sale on eBay (mid-April 2025) with a buy-it-now price of $124.99.
Happy Collecting!
Very cool piece of baseball (and baseball card) history.
Were additional copies of this autographed and inserted into packs at a later date, around 2001 or so?
Sorry, I have no idea
