Thanks to Beckett.com for the story.
Topps, along with Team Baby Entertainment, who creates and distributes officially licensed sports themed DVD's, have joined forces to thrust upon the baseball card collecting world:
"Little Papi" David Ortiz. Even then, he knew he was destined for superstardom.That's right, baby baseball cards. David Ortiz (above), David Wright, Johnny Damon, and Russell Martin lent their baby pictures to Topps to create these limited edition cards that will be included with Red Sox Baby (Ortiz), Mets Baby (Wright), Yankees Baby (Damon), and Dodgers Baby (Martin) DVD's (coming in August, the first three are available NOW). These are sold at the Toys R' Us and Babies R' Us.
While there have been Topps cards of players from their little league days, or boyhood days in the past, this is the first time a player's baby picture will be used on a licensed trading card.
Can't wait to see these on eBay!!!
Sincerely,

I love comments. Please leave comments!!! (Ego, hush). Just keep your words clean (I show my kids this stuff), and the comment will be accepted.
If you must leave a comment anonymously, that's fine too. Although I wish you wouldn't. I'd like to get to know the people who actually read this humble little blog.
Thank you very much.
