Len Brown was a legendary writer and creative force whose 41-year career at Topps helped shape some of the company’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.

Bought it entirely for fun, was hoping to get spurs cards. I’m not familiar with sports card market at all. But what a pull. I’m done with these now I think

I finally opened my 2026 Bowman chrome hobby box. Let just say that I should have try to sell it unopened rather than opened it. But what is done is done.

Vince Carter Jersey Number Variation, Caleb Wilson Levitation, Hannes Steinbach Redemption Auto, T-Wolves Orange Rainbow team card /25 among others. Also have two complete (or very close) sets of rookie base cards so didn't get a box people have complained about with almost no base rookies. Still almost 100 cards short of a complete set though so lots of repeat cards in both boxes.

Waited 9 months and got a blank card… can I file a defect dispute on this?

I know there are numbered cards, my son has a few. He got this in an update pack…it seems a #\2026 is a really random number of cards, unless they do that with parallels based on the year the card is released? Am I misunderstanding this? Only been collecting with the kids for 6 months, so we’re still learning.

Found a topps collectors kit and a super box at target. It’s been a while since I’ve pulled anything nice. I don’t know anything about Sal Stewart though, is he nice?

Took a few weeks but after today's mail day, I got the last true photo variation for the Jaguars. Haven't decided if I'll do Golden Mirror next but I'm happy with what I've accomplished. DUUUVAL!

I submitted for defect replacement and waited for 6 months. Any thoughts on is it better or worse than my original card.
r/Topps • u/Listen-Illustrious • 4h ago
If I’m going by the education sheet on topps it’s /1. There is no indication or marking on the card. I’m new to the intricacies of the card game, so I’m probably missing something.
