What's buzz-worthy: Topps takes its baseball cards to high-end levels not seen before with this ultra high-end brand that "will raise the bar for premium card collecting" with a box that packs nothing but autographs and game-used -- oh and an autograph of Atlanta Braves rookie Ebby Calvin "Nuke" LaLoosh from Bull Durham, too.
