Font used for 2008 Topps Baseball? (3/24: added my son's rookie card)

Hey everyone,

every year I make custom cards of my kids and in December my 3rd son was born. I am making a custom card of him modeled after a 2008 Topps card, but the font they use for the team name and player name is very unique and I can't figure out what it is. Any ideas? I will show a sample of one of the cards to jog your memory!

Here is the finished card of my new son. I ended up just tracing the letters I needed for the name. Did not want to spend the $40 the font cost!

Nice work Jason! What programs do you use? When I do this sort of thing, I trace in AutoCAD, and do my artwork in CorelDraw. Pretty cool!

Good work! I've been thinking of doing the same for my daughter, who was born in 2008. I've been kinda leaining twards doing a "1st Draft Pick" card though... heh.
