On 17 March, 2018, Chennaiyin FC won the Indian Super League title, their second success in the fourth year of the leagues existence. Topps India created a NOW card to celebrate the event and to date it's the only Indian Super League NOW card they've ever created. Thanks to Vincent and Ragul Krishnan for the scans.

Holy shit! Do you have these for sale? These were released by Topps India in 2018. ToppsNow was not popular then. The print run for this is less than 40. This is extremely rare. Do you know anyone who is selling please?
ReplyDeleteYes, very rare indeed. I've never seen any for sale, sorry I can't help.
DeleteDamn. Last sold at 312 quid!!!! Never seen a non Prem/Champions league Topps now sell for this much!!! Print run seems to be in the 20s not 40s. Any got more pictures of these cards?
DeleteAs far as I know, this is the only one.
DeleteTalking about cards released in India - Alan have you created a catalogue/page for the promo Chhetri card that was released in India 2 months back? Context - Panini Prizm released a blaster in stores in India for their Premier League collection. With every blaster you got a Sunil Chhetri (India) Prizm card for free. Lucky buyers got parallels of that Chhetri. I got a Blue Parallel /299. Think these were available in Hamleys and Crossword bookstores across the country.
ReplyDeleteHi Sailesh,
DeleteThank you for getting in touch. I didn't know anything about a Sunil Chhetri cards in Premier League Prizm collection. The last one I featured on my blog is the ones from the Donruss collection in 2022-23. I'll have to try and track down scans of this one. Thanks for alerting me to this card.
Cheers,
Alan
Hi Alan - Slight correction to the above statement. The Sunil Chhetri card that Sailesh is referring to you is not a part of any checklist. It is a promo card. He plays for 'India' and not part of the Premier League. To promote the sale of Panini Prizm Premier League Blaster Boxes in India, they started giving away free pack in which lucky winners could get numbered parallels of a Chhetri card. The only card available in the free pack was Sunil Chhetri. You either hit a base or or a numbered parallel. The numbered parallels are 1/1 - Black, /10 Gold, /5 Green, /199 Red and /299 Blue. Let me know when you create a page for this and I will be able to send in scans of the base and a few parallels. The 1/1 has also been hit. This is in possession of a collector in the UK dont remember the person's name.
DeleteHi Grigor,
DeleteThank you for your help. I've got a page ready for the Sunil Chhetri Prizm card but as I haven't got any images to show I haven't published it on my blog yet. I'll take any photos you are able to get for me. As large a possible please. My e-mail address is: alanjenkins1899@gmail.com. Thanks again for your help.
Hi Alan,
DeleteApologies. I have only recently seen your message. I have sent you an emails with large scans as requested. Please check.
I have provided scans of the Gold (/10), Red (/199) and Blue (/299).
The 1/1 has been pulled by a British-Indian collector.The Green (/5) has been pulled by a collector in America.I know both these collectors by acquaintance. If you can send me the link of the post/page you are creating, I can get them to reach out to you there and contribute the scans of the Black and Green.
Hi Grigor,
DeleteI've received your e-mail, thank you very much for all the scans. I should have a new post on my blog at 5pm (UK time) today.
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards, Alan
Hi Alan Jenkins - My friend Grigor had asked me to submit to you some scans of the Prizm cards released in Asia/India. The green parallel in particular. I have sold this card but i do have the scans from my original eBay listing. How do you want the picture sent?
ReplyDeleteHi Dan,
DeleteThank you for getting in touch. I am going to be adding a new post on my blog later today. You can e-mail your scan of the green parallel, here's my e-mail address: alanjenkins1899@gmail.com
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards, Alan
