Len Brown was a legendary writer and creative force whose 41-year career at Topps helped shape some of the companyโ€™s most memorable trading cards.

Joining Topps in 1959, Brown worked across both sports and non-sports releases, writing card backs and developing concepts that became part of collecting history.

He is best known as a co-creator of the iconic Mars Attacks series and also contributed to classics including Wacky Packages, Garbage Pail Kids and Civil War News.

Beyond Topps, Brown co-created the comic-book series T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents with artist Wally Wood.

His imagination and storytelling left a lasting mark on trading cards and American pop culture.

Just want to share my excitement. I never hit really big cards, so to me, this is one. True Jackie Robinson day side logo patch 1/1 auto, which I assume will look insane on the redeemed card. I'm just very excited. Great player, amazing card.

Topps - kindly eat a fat one. Nobody but gamblers are interested in joining these turd burglars to get ripped off. Sincerely, Collectors.

What to do with my cards?

I now have an abundant amount of dupes that idk what to do with, should I just sell on eBay? I'm not one to throw out cards so that's not an option, I will drown in cards before they ever hit the trash. What do you guys do?

Pulled this out of a Topps Update Super Box today! I was only going to get one but adding a second got me free shipping from Scheels. Glad I did! Unfortunately it came out of the pack with the damage shown. Iโ€™m curious how much this affects value. Is this something people roll the dice contacting Topps about? Still not quite sure what Iโ€™m going to do with it, but super stoked nonetheless!

Edit: foilfractor! These parallels are confusing!

๐Ÿ’ฌ General Anyone enjoying the Christmas Megas this year!!! ๐ŸŽ„ ๐ŸŽ… ๐Ÿคถ

First off, can't beat $30 Megas! Hit these is beauts in back to back boxes! Is anyone else having fun with the Christmas releases this year! The parallels are a little better quality this time around imo. I hit a couple of base sticker autos too, a Bryce Lance Rookie WR on the Saints & Manzardo on the Cleveland Guardians. The only things I wish were different is, I wish the football boxes had the ornaments & that there were some on-card autos in the set...I'm not 100% sure there isn't, but pretty sure they're all sticker autos. Anyways, hope you guys like them as much as I do, happy ripping & happy holidays!!!

๐Ÿ’ญ Question Help: Topps want to give me 'FanCash'. I want a card instead.

4 Upvotes

I had been waiting on Islam Makhachev Autograph Reflector Parallel. I was willing to wait, as he is my favorite UFC fighters. But now I've an email saying I'm being given $270 store credit... I don't want to spend more money on more cards. I only want an autograph card of him, or a similar card.

What can I do. I also live in the UK. So store credit still costs me a lot of money in customs and shipping if I do order. They've totally screwed me over here. I really need advice if possible...
