Card Collector Universe

According to Beckett Baseball, Topps has confirmed that there are short-printed cards in the 2008 Topps Heritage release, as well as a black back variation.   This is great news for value conscious card collectors.  By picking up these short printed cards, you’ll be getting cards that will, most likely, have a higher value than your average common card in this set. 

 The short-printed cards that would have the most interest as a collector, or investor, for me, are:

• #463, Tony Pena, Kansas City Royals
• #487, J.J. Hardy, Milwaukee Brewers
• #491, Alfonso Soriano, Chicago Cubs
• #495, Brian McCann, Atlanta Braves

The same type of list for the black back variations cards:

• #21, Troy Tulowitzki, Colorado Rockies
• #54, Justin Upton, Arizona Diamondbacks
• #92, Phil Hughes, New York Yankees
• #224, David Wright, New York Mets
• #228, Andrew Miller, Florida Marlins
• #372, Ryan Howard, Philadelphia Phillies
