2010 Topps Chrome Baseball Bounty Prize Card Contest

Today, Topps is beginning a 2010 Chrome Baseball Bounty Card Contest. Here’s how it’s going to work: Every week Topps will designate particular ‘10 Chrome Baseball cards as “bounty prize cards”. If you are the owner this card or group of cards, send us an email at chromeprize@topps.com. In the email, include a picture of yourself holding the card(s) (yes, we want to see your smiling face) so we can verify that you are actually in possession of the prize card(s) (no stealing pictures from the internet!). The first person to do so each will be awarded the prize. We have memorabilia and vintage cards to give away, so be sure to check back with ToppsBlog each week so you don’t miss out on your chance to win!
