Card of the Day - 2014 Topps High Tek : Clayton Kershaw Base Spiral Bricks Red Storm Diffractor Parallel (7/10)


A week or so ago I showcased the Heritage action photo variation of Clayton that I picked up for $8.33 and now here is the "big" catch of that auction that contained both cards. This one was also acquired for $8.33 and it is the red parallel from the 2014 Topps High Tek release and limited to just 10 copies.

When I saw this pop up on eBay I knew that a couple had already sold for north of $25. Considering it is limited to just 10 copies that $25 cost is pretty reasonable I would say but at the same time the High Tek brand is not the most popular of brands in the hobby. While I personally would not have forked over $25 for this card I definitely had no problem paying $8.33 for it.

I had hoped that this would come to me in good enough condition to add it to my gem mint collection of Mr. Kershaw and I believe it has about a 50/50 chance of that as only 1 corner seems to have a little bit of fuzziness to it. I will just have to wait and see what Beckett thinks.

  1. The red goes well with the Dodgers. Nice looking card. Probably evenbetter in person than in the photo.
