I struck Huddy gold!

Say what you will about the current programs for 2012 Topps, but when it yields a card like this for me call me a satisfied collector!

2012 Topps Gold Rush auto #31/50   Photobucket

The card is serially numbered #31/50.  Being that these are randomly inserted into the Gold Rush packs that are only available in the month of February makes me think I won't see a lot of this card floating around the market.  I haven't picked up the regular version of this card yet so I was amazed at how nice these look.  I like them a lot better compared to last year's wrapper redemption program.

My Tim Hudson auto collection is slowly starting to grow.  Eventually I'll have a virtual album of his in the sidebar.

  1. Unbelievable luck! Is the auto on card? Either way its awesome and I haven't seen anyone pull an auto from these, so it seems that they are quite rare.

  3. Did you pull that out of a redemption pack or splurge for it on the bay?
    Either way it's awesome!

  4. Awesome! How many days did it take for you to get your pack after you send the wrappers in?

  5. Nice Colbey!!! I don't even want to ask how much that set you back. I only got one Brave in my pack and I'm keeping Mr. Aaron for myself. Have fun at the card show!

  6. I'm curious if anyones seen a checklist to which cards there is an auto version for, or if the whole set has an auto card too? Anybody know?
