2015 Hits Cards

While keeping tabs on the most current Yount cards and compiling my checklist and image database I came across this card.  I don't own it. 

 I wasn't sure what to think at first.  I wondered is this a homemade custom card?  But luckily the company that made it, Hits Cards, put their website address right on the back card.  Not only that but their website includes an image gallery with every card they make along with the corresponding numbered hologram on the back of the card.

They made 10 Yount cards.  This is the only one I saw up for sale on eBay.  You can check out all the cards and the company website here at Hits Cards

Obviously the star of this card is that huge patch with no image of the player featured, but if your looking for a gigantic relic here you go.

  1. Looks like a spring training jersey part of some sort.

    By their wording, perhaps it was personally "used" by Robin Yount as a dish towel?

  2. Yeah the wording always gets me. It's like Topps' "not from any event, season, or game". Who knows about the provenance? They do have a COA from the MLB on it. It's labeled as a practice jersey. I think what I like best about the company and it's website is their transparency. At least they are making an effort to guarantee the relic embedded.
