Year: 2011

Set: Topps Update - Cognac Diamond Anniversary (Rate)

Card: #US162 Troy Tulowitzki


“ Aside from the name, I love this card! The name seems kind of silly...isn't cognac some kind of alcohol? ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Great pickup for the Blue Jays.This card must from when he played in the "bush league".Cognac Diamond really ? ” -uncaian

“ Several points to make on this card - and they are all good! Great player - probably deserved to be the starter in the ASG in the first place. I always liked the 2011 design. And I was actually a fan of this parallel (not usually a fan of parallels). Lastly, nice scan! ” -vrooomed

“ OK I like 2011 Topps and I like the Update set, I even like opening day somewhat and the All-Star game cards sort of, but I am not a fan of all the Diamond Anniversary cards or this camouflage variant. Or wait is this the diamond prism green "ice" variant? This is a perfect example of variant overload. ” -captkirk42

“ Good use of landscape orientation. Apparently didn't have enough stats/material to fill the back, so Topps decided to triple-space it. I remember using that trick when trying to stretch ten sentences into a "five-page essay"... ” -dilemma19

“ This is when Topps got real obsessed with diamonds. ” -carthage44

I have to admit, I really LOVE this set. I wish I had more of these cards. I have three

Nice shot and design, but sick of parallels.

It looks like he's batting in a pile of leaves.

If you stare it it long enough does a 3D image magically appear?

 Am I the only fool who thought this was taken at Wrigley?
