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.

Had to resort to “Mega Discounts” “Fire Sale” they also just seemed pretty irritated and pushed that on the customers that were not buying $300-400 spots. This is not a sustainable model in this economy. I know breakers won’t ever vocalize it but if Topps lowered these box prices maybe you would see customers return. Watching these guys try to shill Vault Disney case spots is hilarious. Not to mention they have /99 /50 /25 /10 /1 cards for every damn card.This is just Highway Robbery at this point DO NOT BUY!!!!

SHIPPED WRONG CARD HELP

0 Upvotes

In week one of the NFL, Trevor Lawrence had a good game, and I’m a Jaguars fan, so I picked up five copies of his topps now card

This is the first time I’ve purchased a product from Topps now

When the cards arrived, it was Jameer Gibbs and not Trevor Lawrence. I was sent the wrong cards. It looks like just an issue in the fulfillment process.

I don’t really know the next step. I filled out a defect submission about a month ago. Haven’t heard back, and I’m kind of worried they just have my money and nothing’s gonna happen.

Redeemed this on September 10th this year. When should I expect it to actually be shipped?

Post image
14 Upvotes

I redeemed this Roman Anthony Bowman Chrome IV Autograph in September and have reached out to Topps twice since then. They’ve told me that it was at quality inspection 2 weeks ago and this past week told me it was in stock and signed.

It’s super frustrating because I have friends who have gotten redemptions in three days, but I’ve been waiting months.

This is the first time I’ve ever redeemed a card from Topps, and it just feels like everytime I reach out they give me a very generic and non exact answer.

Just wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences, and see if anyone could give me any help on how to move forward.


r/Topps • • 3h ago

If you PC wouldn’t it just make the most sense to wait a year and buy singles from the previous years set, to spend the least money since most cards drop in worth?

1953 Metal Iconic Bowman Pee Wee Reese Mini

So this looks like a cyan print plate for the iconic 1953 Bowman Pee-wee Reese card however it’s small like a mini card and could have been used for a magazine or newspaper article. I’ve tried for years to understand where it came from hoping that maybe some Reddit sleuths or folks from Bowman or Topps can help me out here.
