Topps is getting around to printing the 1000000 card giveaway favorite card stories sent in by collectors. It's been a couple of months since the contest's peak and it's disappointing that a lot of these stories won't get the attention they might have gotten if they were posted faster.
I bring this up because one of the earliest stories published, by super-collector Keith Olbermann, inspired me to pick up the card he wrote lovingly about. The card has a really interesting back story which I'll leave Keith to explain...but it is all about that odd space between "Tom" and "Reynolds."
