I'm assuming that you did the rough for this one. Great job!
They really should give you at least one...

Thanks! I'm sure Neil will take care of me. I love the finished piece. It's flattering that it stayed so true to the rough.

A new card will be given away with each paid admission to the May 1st show!

ENJOY!!!

Very cool!  I'll add my name to the growing list of people who can't make it but would love to pick one up if anyone has any to sell or trade!

Any chance of both the Postcard and Old School Binders being sold by Topps at the Philly show with no shipping and a discount for buying both at the same time?  That would be cool and help bring more people to the show. Having the Binders and the Promo card at the show would be a Wacky Trifecta!!!

Thanks for posting that. I find the capital "S" in ReSees and the extra line at the bottom very funny. But I also really like the uncluttered look of the finished piece. Kudos to you and Neil!

Hi,
 I am new to the forum, but would love to get on the "I can't make it to Philly, but would like a Promo card" list.
Thanks so much.

I certainly would like to be on the list (as noted by being the second response in this thread).  I hope Topps will have some to share with the online folks.  My concern is that they will only be available in the paid-admission "gift bag".

If they will give us extras, I will send them to people for free.  I will go right down this thread and send in the order people post in case I get fewer extras than there is demand to make it as fair as possible.  I just ask for a little assistance on postage.

Neil, do you know if they will give any extras away to meet this demand?

Mark me down for one if they become available.  Happy to chip in for incidentals as well.

They usually don't hand out extras at the entrance but were hoping we can get some at the Topps booth.

IMPORTANT NOTE about the postcard promo:

These are limited edition and will only be given away with your paid admission to the show. In other words, they won't be giving these out at the Topps booth. Sorry folks, I don't make the rules!

Martin, maybe at the end of the day they will have a (few) leftover, if so I got you covered...that's the best I can do :^)

Is it permissible for someone to pay for admission a second time and get a second bag of goodies when they go inside?  I might consider paying for someone's second admission to get one!

Great idea! Looks like admission is only $6 for one day, $10 for 2 days. Can someone please buy me an admission too?

I don't see why you couldn't do that.  I don't see why they would care as long as the price of admission was covered.  I believe the admission is $6.00, and if these are truly limited and won't be released by Topps with other items then they are definitely worth the 6 bucks!

$6 is not a big expense, especially if there are more freebie/promos that come with the bag of goodies.  I'd be willing to buy one from someone at that price (plus the cost of shipping, of course).

I agree, so who is willing to try this for us that cannot make it and if so how would they want us to get them the $$$?

Maybe we should make a buddy list?  If they allow multiple purchases though I'll buy a bunch to re-sell at cost + postage.

Same here. I'll definitely pay someone the ticket cost + shipping if they purchase an extra admission.

Excellent idea! That way, we have a confirmation and security that we are covered. I do NOT want to have to buy one on eBay from Turbo a week from now for $20!!!
