Topps Wants Wrappers Back in 2011

According to Topps' own (rather crappy) website (where the logo also came from):

To launch and celebrate the 60th Anniversary of Topps Baseball Cards, the company is pleased to announce a special Hobby-Exclusive Wrapper Redemption Program for 2011 Topps Baseball Series 1.

Collectors sending Topps 36 Hobby wrappers or 10 HTA Jumbo wrappers of 2011 Topps Series 1 will receive a special 5-card pack of  60th Anniversary Black Diamond cards (collect all 60!).

In addition, Topps is seeding 34 different on-card Autograph cards (#’d to 60), featuring subjects from the original 1952 Topps set, into these 5-card packs.

Collectors should send wrappers to:

PO BOX 2008

Duryea, PA 18642

ATTN: Topps Baseball Series 1 Promotion

*Collectors are encouraged to group their wrappers and send in 1 package.

*Promotion ends August 1, 2011.

That's right, you get more cards for your wrappers - very cool...not to mention a chance at nabbing some pretty nice autographs!  According to Topps, for every hobby box or jumbo box you buy, you get a pack of the promotional cards.  Recently, I splurged for a case of jumbo boxes (with the potential plan of a group break, though I'm not sure yet)...but it looks like I should be in line to redeem the wrappers to nab 30 cards from the set...and kudos to anyone who actually finishes that set off - that's going to be a difficult set!
