Russell Wilson Freshman Baseball... Anyone ever seen this?
 

Hi all,

Has anyone ever seen this 2009 Russell Wilson card from NC State? Not sure if it is an officially produced card by the university or maybe even a broder card? I've only seen one other example before and assume it is quite rare, if the real deal. Any and all opinions are welcomed. Thank you.

I don't know, but college cards typically had information on them about the sponsor/manufacturer. This one just has the look of a decent custom.

You'd think that if they were real, they would have surfaced when he was hobby hot.

I guess it is possible that it is real as well. Unless you can find some sort of back up information, you might never know for sure.

The photo seems a little suspicious too. Usually the college cards have decent pictures of the players. Seems like someone might have lifted a lower quality photo (best they could find?) to make the card AFTER he got popular in the NFL?

The sponsor is listed front and center: St. Lawrence Homes.

Sold in 2014. The fact that it's from a complete set makes it more likely to be real.

there are a few on ebay
