Aaron Judge made history Tuesday night with his record-breaking 62nd home run of the season. Now, the momentous occasion is being commemorated in a limited-edition baseball card from Topps.
Officially dubbed the “Aaron Judge 62ndHR Topps NOW Card,” fans can choose from three different editions that showcase the Yankees slugger and his history-making achievement.
The base edition card captures the moment Judge hit his 62nd long-ball, which broke Roger Maris’ longstanding American League record, set all the way back in 1961. Topps also made a Gold Foil Collectors Edition (sold in a limited run of 62 cards) and an Autograph Edition with the outfielder’s signature, though both of those runs have already sold out online.
Buy Aaron Judge Topps Baseball Card $9.99
The base edition card is still available though, but only until the end of October 6. As with most Topps NOW releases, the cards are only sold for a limited time to ensure exclusivity. A single card retails online for $9.99 though you can buy up to 20 cards at a time (a 20-pack of the Judge baseball card sells for $79.99).
Topps’ commemorative card series has been tracking Judge’s milestone through limited-edition (and now sold-out) baseball cards for his 60th and 61st home runs. The collectibles company also released a dual-sided card featuring Judge and Maris together when Judge tied Maris’ record last week.
Buy Aaron Judge Bobblehead $70
Topps isn’t the only company jumping on the Aaron Judge bandwagon: the collectibles site FOCO has just released an Aaron Judge bobblehead doll for pre-order.
The hand-painted bobblehead features number 99 in his gameday uniform and swinging for the fences (with flames hanging off his bat, natch). The eight-inch bobblehead retails for $70 and only 662 units were made, making this a great pick-up for fans and collectors alike.
