Thanks to Hand Collated via Stale Gum for the tip, but it seems that there is an 18th variation card mixed in with the base set. As we already know from the initial checklist, the seventeen CMG exclusives are numbered as short printed variation cards within the base set. However, this one was not announced.
Card #44 in 2009 Topps Series I is Geoff Jenkins. Card #44b is:
Found on the bay. Only one up as of right now for $500.00.
I plan on getting the set with seventeen SP players...should I try for the eighteenth???

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.
