Description
This is a custom fan-made baseball card using the 2024 Topps Series 1 design template. It depicts Cody Bellinger in a New York Yankees pinstripe uniform. Bellinger was heavily rumored to sign with the Yankees during the 2023-2024 offseason (though he eventually re-signed with the Cubs), making this a 'speculative' or 'what-if' fantasy card. Note the '75th PRS' logo in the top left, which is not an official Topps logo.
Key Features
Depicts a star player on a popular team they never actually played for; uses the modern 2024 Topps flagship border design.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence this is a non-authentic/custom card. The image is a photo-manipulation (Photoshop) of Bellinger into a Yankees uniform; Topps did not print a Bellinger Yankees card in the 2024 set as he remained a free agent and then a Cub.
Flaws to Note
This is not an official MLB licensed product. Official cards would feature the 'RC' or 'Topps' logo clearly, and Bellinger is not a Yankee. The card has rough cut edges visible on the bottom right and is slightly off-center.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (listed clearly as 'Custom' or 'Art Card') or Etsy.
Selling Tips
Do not list this as an authentic Topps card, as that would violate marketplace policies. Clearly label it as 'Custom Art Card' or 'Fantasy Card.' It is best used as a novelty item for a Yankees fan.
