Today, August 7th is the sixth consecutive annual Topps National Baseball Card Day. A free pack will be given out at participating local card shops. The packs contain 5 cards which are part of an exclusive thirty card set. The set has 1 player from each team. Technically the Yankees have two players and the Rangers have none because of an exchange of players at the Trade Deadline. The set is mainly stars but also contains a few Rookies. It is possible to find autograph cards as well. There are 19 autograph cards available.
As in the past you can get a bonus player this week with a $10 Topps purchase. In addition, next Saturday, August 14th, you can get a second bonus card as well.
There are also cards being given away at MLB fields. Every team except the Blue Jays and the Yankees are participating in this SGA. These promotions are happening between July 25th and August 15th. The cards given out at the stadiums are different because they are team related. These are also five card packs.
While there weren’t any stadium giveaways, (SGA) last year; this year Toops is also giving away cards via a truck that travels nationwide. The truck will end its tour at the August 12th Field of Dreams game.
