2009 Topps Allen & Ginter baseball cards are here … by Chris Olds

greatestginterThe 2009 Topps Allen & Ginter baseball set has arrived and we’ll be presenting a very special episode of Box Busters here on Thursday.

But, until then, behold perhaps the greatest Allen & Ginter card of all time.

The card of The Invisible Man.

No trickery, no sleight of hand. No Photoshop needed here. That’s the actual card from the Creatures of Legend Myth and Terror insert set.

We’ve got our hands on some Ginter a week early — it arrives in hobby shops on July 8. See additional cards after the jump…

Chris Olds has collected sports cards and memorabilia since 1987. Before coming to Beckett Media, he wrote about the hobby for the Orlando Sentinel on his blog, SportsStuff, and for the San Antonio Express-News and The Tuscaloosa (Ala.) News.
