A Look at 2019 Topps Baseball Cards

Across all their social media pages today, Topps gave all card collectors a brief look at the design for their 2019 Flagship Baseball Card Set.


I've never really understood why Topps releases the images in the middle of August when collectors are still trying to put together sets of Topps Series 1 and 2, Topps Heritage, and just a few days after National Baseball Card Day. 


That said, here's the two images Topps released.

                                                   Card images from Topps.com 



There have already been many reviews about the release, both good and bad, but, for me, I actually like the cards, and look forward to seeing more images released, including, hopefully, what the Detroit Tigers players cards will look like.

I think the design is clean and crisp, and I like that each cards outline will have the corresponding teams colors on the cards edges, with the team logo in the right corner of the card.

I also like the look of the Betts horizontal card, and hope that a few of my favorite players are on those cards, including Miguel Cabrera, Nicholas Castellanos, Matt Boyd, Justin Verlander, Trevor Story, and J.T. Realmuto.


Here's to all the great card collectors out there, I hope you, like me, look forward to the release of this set next year.
