2004 Topps Tribute-Hall of Fame Edition will feature cut signature cards from 185 different members of the Baseball Hall of Fame. Each card will be limited to just one.
From George Wright of the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings to the 35-game winning Kid Nichols of the 1892 Boston Beaneaters, they’re all here. There’s Mordecai (3-Finger) Brown, Negro League Great Cool Papa Ball and much more. There are even 5 one of a kind cards featuring 2 players that entered the hall the same year. A dual signature card of Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb is definitely one for the ages. (Partial checklist included)
And that’s not it. Along with offering cut signature cards of the greatest to ever step onto the diamond, Topps Tribute will be home to the greatest collection of signatures of musicians, actors and leaders. Cards (1 of 1’s) featuring actual autographs of Clark Gable (image attached), Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin and many more are all in Topps Tribute-Hall of Fame. Collectors are also treated to dual cut signatures such as Abbott/Costello, Gillian Anderson/David Duchovny and Lucille Ball/Desi Arnaz.
