Trading Card Oops of the Week: 2008 Finest Football

Yesterday Topps announced another "oops" pertaining to 2008 Finest Football. It seems those serial-numbered base autographed rookies are missing their serial numbers. Oops, indeed. To help fix the problem (and create an added layer of chaos), Topps has set things up for collectors to send in their print errors and have them get serial numbered as well as tagged with an authenticity sticker.

Numbering will be based on the order cards are received, so time it wisely faux one-of-one seekers out there. As a peace offering Topps is tossing in a "2008 hobby pack." Of what brand? That is the mystery of careful language.

Cards will be accepted until March 31, 2009.

Send your non-serial numbered base rookie autographs to:
The Topps Company
ATTN: Consumer Relations
401 York Ave
Duryea, PA 18642
