I got mine in the mail yesterday and just picked up another one last night.

The Ermsy Ichiro has dropped a bit back to around $150. Might be the best opportunity to pick one up if you missed out on them when they were $30 last week.

Great buying opportunity right now if you're looking for some of the first 10-20. Grabbing a an Ichiro #1 the next few days. Maybe another Ermsy Trout if they hit <$375 dlvd.

I did the same with Ichiro....I think it’s a bargain right now. Same thing happened with a couple others...took a small dip....now almost 3 hundo.

That looks like a good call to me. I will take the under, but not by much.

3) Griffey

I think we also have a consensus on the top three artists (based on buzz/sales figures), but again, who is #4?:
1) Ben Baller
2) Ermsy
3) King Saladeen
4) ???

Interested to hear some thoughts.





I’ve been partial to Blake Jamieson’s cards aesthetically so far. May not be getting the same buzz as some of the weirder stuff, but man those colors POP. Beautiful cards.
So I posted a poll on the Topps Project 2020 FaceBook group asking about favorite artists...I voted for Keith Shore.

There's only about 60 votes so far but it goes:
1. Ermsy (26 votes)
2. Jamison (19)
3. Beck (9)
4. Cartoon (8)

Baller has 4 votes, Saladeen has 2.

If y'all want to add your vote to it, it'd help us get a better idea of which to look out for in the coming weeks

That Jeter seems low in price. Nicest one released so far.

I’m king. And for me it’s not even close.

Art is very interesting that’s for sure

I agree! I’ve grabbed 6 @ $23-25 since I missed the initial release.

The prjct2020.com has a favorite artist poll as well, with 52 respondents so far Ermsy has a big lead (16 votes), with Siff in second (8) and Baller in third (4).




Nice work by the creator of that site to offer all of this data.

Ichiro will be fourth player -- it seems modern-day players are the big winners. I give that one a big edge over Rivera as the Rivera photo on original card is awful.

Chang and Jamieson might end up with some spikes but I'm not sold on a specific one just yet of the two. Watching both. Not sure I'm sold on Baller overall on the list as his first two didn't wow me like the Trout did. I almost pulled trigger on Ichiro for Ermsy and Chang but didn't as I'm not buying to sell. Liked both but didn't do it.

This is almost exactly what I think and almost exactly what I did. Only substitute the Jamieson Mattingly for the Ermsy Ichiro.

I’ll add, I think Ermsy’s popularity is fueled more by his Trout being the first one. Sometimes being first to market wins.

I’m buying most of Blake’s cards and going to send them to him to sign. I think it’s really cool he’s willing to do that. I LOVE the Mattingly. And this is coming from a Red Sox fan. I can’t wait to see what he does with the Williams card.

What's the difference between sending the cards to him for him to sign and paying for a signed copy off his website? You pay via the website and free if you mail it?

Website is a colored auto and numbered on the back, send to him it’s a black auto and no numbering.

Just like the guy above me said. And I don’t think Blake is ever gonna run a series 2 of any of the cards so it’s the only time to get a limited edition colored autograph that’s hand numbered. Or you could mail 100 copies to him if you wanted to and he would sign them all for free and mail them back- you just have to pay postage. Though, if you try to pump that many autos you should flip him some bennys as a tip.

And I think he mentioned that he’ll keep track of the number of cards he cracks to sign so there will be an accurate print run of uncracked, unsigned copies. Will be curious to see the updated print runs of all of his cards.
