The first Negro League player to be featured in the Topps Living set (and hopefully not the last). When Topps and Jared Kelley unveiled the card it did not feature any logos, as Topps was unable to secure the rights to use team logos or names. The original photo reference Jared Kelley used for the portrait featured Josh Gibson in a Pittsburgh Crawfords uniform, but with the help of Josh's great grandson Sean, Topps was able to secure the rights to use the Homestread Grays logo and name, which Jared Kelly unveiled on Feb. 11, 2022 on Twitter. |
