Classic Rookie Cards that never got made… until now. The Lost Rookie cards returns for a third series. Celebrating the debut season in the UEFA Champions League of the biggest stars in world football, past and present. But now it looks as if they've decided to expand the collection to cover the old European Cup with the inclusion of FC Bayern München's "Der Kaiser" - Franz Beckenbauer. Can we expect cards for Alfredo Di Stefano, Ferenc Puskas, Eusebio, George Best, Johan Cruyff, Didi, Gerd Müller and a host of others.
A new Rookie Card released every week on a vintage Topps design from the same season as when the player debuted in the competition. Cards are priced at £7.99/€8.00 each. There are discounts for larger orders - 5 cards for £28.03; 10 cards for £54.20 and 20 cards for £75.00 (£3.75 per card).
Look out for numbered parallels included with lucky orders of base cards # to 1, # to 5, # to 10, # to 25, # to 49 and 99. Any autograph cards for ’Lost Rookie’ subjects are sold separately. This product is printed to order. There will be a one-week sale period, after which they will collate all orders and then begin printing!
The Franz Beckenbauer autograph cards are available on the Topps Deutschland website: I couldn't find a card #/25; #/10 priced at €250.00; #/5 priced at €500.00 and the 1/1 card priced at €1,000.00.
