Bowman Tom Brady baseball cards selling for big dollars on eBay

As you’ve probably heard, a Tom Brady “fantasy” baseball card is on fire. 

The team at Topps/Fanatics concocted a Bowman autographed “Dream Draft Picks” card featuring Brady as a 1995 Montreal Expos catching prospect. It’s flawed, for sure — some will take issue with the superimposed head shot of Brady paired with a huskier-looking catcher’s body, for example. But collectors flat-out want it.

A 1/1 signed Superfractor variation of the card is drawing big bids at Goldin Co. But even before that rarity got listed, eBay bidders were paying five-figure sums for other variations. 

One of them sits in our monthly Top 10 chart, and — look out below! — there are three more in our “next 10.” Four of the Brady Superfractors have sold for prices ranging from $18,000-$24,000. 

Will they maintain their value? Time will tell. But here’s one sure bet: Brady’s year-2000 rookie cards from Playoff and Upper Deck will always have the upper hand when it comes to demand.
