Football is working its way back into the minds of
collectors.
Press Pass, SaGe, Leaf and Upper Deck have released most
of their pre-draft products, collecting on the hype of Johnny Football. Right
before the first 2014 releases were to come out, Missouri defensive end Michael
Sam announced he was gay.
So, card companies jumped on the national media attention
surrounding him to get his autographs in products.
Press Pass came out too soon, but it did allow customers
to send in a UPC from a hobby box to redeem a Sam autograph. Since I bought a
box, I figured, why not?
I got the Sam autograph back in about a week – talk about
a quick redemption time.
Sam’s base autographs are selling for about $10 to $20 oneBay. So there are easier ways to pick up one of his cards, if you are
interested.
