Originally I scanned these for TCD but the scans were too big to let me upload them. I had already put them away in their binder pages and I am not about to get them out and rescan them so I am going to post them here instead.
These are 5x7 cards that you could only buy from the Topps website in 2015. It is hard to see but they are serial numbered to 199 in silver on the left border right above the World Series Trophy. Silver Serial Number on a Silver Border, great idea Topps.
There is a gold version too, they are all numbered to 49. And they set me back 50. The Gold on Gold serial numbers shows up way better than the silver does but still a bad decision. They should have put it on the white border or even on the back.
When I saw that nobody had scanned them into TCB I couldn't find them. For some reason they were the very last page of my card binder. I maybe justified it that I got them from Topps so they are obviously cards so I put them in the card binder. The fact that I couldn't find them when I was looking for them tells me that they need to be in the oversized binder.

Totally forgot about the Topps Cardboard Icons oversized cards. I did a quick email search and discovered I picked up the Gwynn, Henderson, and Favre sets for my collection. Didn't realize they even had team themed sets (or gold parallels). Very cool.
I didn't realize they issued more sets for other years. I just thought it was a 55th anniversary set.
