2001 Topps Traded & Rookies

Description

2001 Topps Traded & Rookies with Topps Chrome was released in October 2001, and features a 265-card base set. Topps Traded was sold exclusively in pack form and for the first time "bundled" with Topps Chrome Traded. Each 10-card pack contained eight 2001 Topps Traded and two 2001 Topps Chrome Traded cards.

The 265-card set is broken down as follows: 99 cards highlighting player deals made during the 2000 off-season and 2001 season; 45 traded reprints (T100 through T144) of rookie cards featured in past Topps Traded sets; six managers (T145-T150) who've either switched teams or were newly hired for the 2001 season; 60 future stars who have never appeared alone on a Topps card; 55 rookies who make their premiere on a Topps card.

Notable rookies include Justin Mourneau, Jose Reyes, Ichiro Suzuki (Topps Chrome Traded only), and Albert Pujols (Topps Traded only).

Ichiro and Albert Pujols rookie cards

Ichiro Suzuki's Topps rookie card appeared in the second series of Topps Baseball. However, due to licensing issues, Ichiro was unable to be included in the second series of Topps Chrome. Topps replaced Ichiro with a Topps Chrome card of Albert Pujols -- which is Pujols' Topps Chrome rookie card.

Topps included Pujols in Topps Traded and Topps Chrome Traded; however, because Pujols was already in Topps Chrome, only the regular Topps Traded card is considered a "true" rookie.

For Ichiro, a 266th card was added to the Topps Chrome Traded set, and this is considered his "true" Topps Chrome rookie card.

Parallels

All 265 Topps Traded cards are available in a Gold parallel, which is serial-numbered to 2001 copies.

Topps Chrome Traded

This 266 card set parallels the 2001 Topps Traded set, and was seeded into packs at the rate of 2:1. To make up for his exclusion (for licensing purposes) from the 2001 Topps Chrome set, a 266th card of Ichiro Suzuki was produced. This card is a copy of his 2001 Topps card and is considered a "true" rookie. Albert Pujols' Topps Chrome Traded card is not a true rookie, as he had taken Ichiro's place in Topps Chrome.

All 266 Topps Chrome Traded cards are available as a "Retrofractor" parallel, which are limited (but not serial-numbered) to 500 copies. Retrofractors are so named, because they are Chrome Refractors printed on old fashioned grayback cardstock.

T266 Ichiro Suzuki RC
