Description

2009 Topps Tribute is a 100-card set released January 6th, 2010. This was the first Tribute set after a five year hiatus. Each $50/five-card pack yielded three base cards, in serial-numbered parallel card serial-numbered to 219 copies or fewer, and either a relic card or an autographed (sticker) relic card serial-numbered to 99 copies or fewer.

A typical six-pack wax box should yield three autographed relics, three relics and six parallels.

Use of Stadium Seats as Relics

On January 24th, 2010, Topps confirmed what many collector's had suspected, by admitting that http://www.cardboardconnection.com/news/topps-confirms-use-of-stadium-seats-in-select-2009-topps-tribute-relic-cards five prominent Topps Tribute memorabilia cards included pieces of stadium seats in lieu of a game-used bat.] (Nowhere on any Topps Tribute card does it mention exactly what the relics are from, nor was the use of stadium seats mentioned by Topps on the sell-sheets.) The five cards in question are:

  • Babe Ruth Dual Relic Bat / Old Yankee Stadium Seat
  • Babe Ruth Triple Relic Old Yankee Stadium Seat / Uniform / Old Yankees Stadium Seat
  • Ty Cobb Dual Relic Bat / Tiger Stadium Seat
  • Jackie Robinson Triple Relic Ebbets Field Seat / Bat / Ebbets Field Seat
  • Mickey Mantle Triple Relic Old Yankee Stadium Seat / Uniform / Old Yankees Stadium Seat

Topps offered to exchange any of the five cards for either an unopened pack of '09 Tribute or comparable product.

In addition, Topps pledged to no longer use stadium seat pieces as memorabilia pieces unless it’s part of a special stadium seat specific insert.
