It doesn't seem like I should have to look far for info on this card, but I can't find any recent sales and it doesn't match the checklists I've found. I thought it was from 2001 topps archives, but the gold stamp doesn't match others I have. Is it actually part of the auto series inserted in various Topps products around that time?

    2002 Bowman Heritage? I know there was a 54 Reprint as part of that set, but not sure about an auto'd version. The stamp looks like it's from Bowman of that era.

    That was a possibility, but I haven't found another example, and the other autos from that issue had a bowman heritage logo.

    How about 2001 Bowman Rookie Reprints Autographs #8 Don Larsen? Looks like the same logo on the Yogi (only one I could find a pic for quickly).

    That's it. Found the #8 of 10 in tiny print on the back. What's odd is I found it while sorting through cards for my dad, and in these boxes he was literally just opening stuff, sleeving and holdering certain cards, and then leaving them in the 5000 count boxes to forget about. Within this box there was 2001 topps archives and 2001 bowman chrome, and this was with some other archives autos. From what I can tell, he never opened any regular bowman that year. I'm wondering if some of these made it into the chrome or archives as undocumented inserts. It's also interesting that this card must have condition issues, possibly with the same bottom left corner as this one, since psa has only graded 3, a 6,7, and 8.



    At any rate, thanks for finding that! It was driving me insane.
