Not sure if this is the right place for this but I stumbled across the announcement about the Popes Rookie Baseball Card on Google.. Seems you have to be at the stadium the week of the 26th to get one.. Since the Phillies are handing out these cards does it make them a baseball collectible or what?? I guess it's one of the commemoratives marking the Popes visit to the U.S...

Under $1 on COMC for his rookie card from 2013 Allen & Ginter.

Thanks for the link I do believe I have to get a couple of those.. The one being given away at the Phillies Stadium looks a bit more like a baseball trading card but the hitch to getting one is they are only being given out at the stadium during the Popes visit from what I gather..

Don't worry. I'm sure there will be plenty of hoarders at Philly and you'll soon see the cards popping up on the BST:D

I believe this is the original Pope Rookie Card, but i could be wrong.
