The Bounty Continues With More American Treasures

Topps created quite the stir with 2004 Topps Series 1 baseball by including cut autographs from every single American president. Although you had about a good a chance as getting struck by lightning, the cards had even non-collectors ripping wax with hopes of find signatures from the likes of George Washington to Thomas Jefferson to Richard Nixon.

The autograph series continues on in 2004 Topps Series 2 with a new line-up of inventors, celebrities, politicians and historical figures. The list includes:

  • Albert Einstein
  • Alexander Graham Bell
  • Douglas MacArthur
  • Thomas Edison
  • George Patton
  • Orville Wright
  • Charles Lindbergh
  • Helen Keller
  • Mark Twain
  • Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain’s given name)
  • William Randolph Hearst
  • Jonas Salk
  • Aaron Burr
  • Patrick Henry
  • Robert Kennedy
  • Daniel Webster
  • Amelia Earhart
  • Neil Armstrong

The is no word yet on the odds of pulling any one of these cards, but its bound to be as high, if not higher than the presidential signatures. 2004 Topps Series 2 will release in mid-April.
