Description
Extremely rare 2024 Topps Series 1 Bo Bichette 'Hidden Easter Egg' Short Print. This card features a unique Photoshop variation showing Bo Bichette in a New York Mets uniform (numbered #19) instead of his standard Blue Jays attire. The design includes the 'Topps 75' anniversary logo in the top right and the NYM/Mets branding, despite Bichette never playing for the team. This is one of the most sought-after undocumented variations of the 2024 set.
Key Features
Undocumented Short Print (SP) variation; 'Easter Egg' set status; features player on a team they never played for; high scarcity compared to base cards; iconic 'what-if' collectible.
Authenticity Indicators
High Confidence. The specific 'Topps 75' logo and the high-resolution printing of the Mets jersey/number 19 match known legitimate Easter Egg print runs. Check for the matte-to-gloss ratio on the card stock.
Flaws to Note
Slight right-side centering bias on the front border. Minimal white flecking on the bottom-right corner edge Tip. Surface needs to be checked for hairline scratches common in the 2024 Topps high-gloss finish.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the primary market for this card to capture the widest audience of variation collectors. COMC is a secondary option for long-term listing.
Selling Tips
Do not list this as a standard base card. Use keywords like 'EASTER EGG', 'SP', 'METS VARIATION', and 'RARE' in the title. Because trade rumors often surround Bichette, market value may spike if he is actually linked to a trade in the future.
