Description: 2001 Topps Employee Set #396 Todd Helton Manny Ramirez PSA 8 NM-MINT POP 2, ONLY 2 GRADED HIGHER! As a special bonus for their NYC based employees, Topps created a "parallel" factory set of the 2001 Topps set with a special employee logo embossed on the card. It is believed approximately 150 of these sets were produced. Most versions of this set are either littered with snow, bricked, or lost. Many of these cards have been in vertically-stored bricks for 20 years. Most cards sold have major condition flaws with most card grades below PSA or BGS 7. For the Todd Helton/Manny Ramirez #396, PSA has only graded 2 of these cards in a PSA 8 (This Card). There are only 2 higher-graded examples of this card, with no PSA 10s in existence!Other 2001 Employee PSA 8s and higher sell for a huge premium compared to lower-graded cards. There are even PSA 6-7s on the market between $500-$1,000+. PSA has reported no public sales of this card, and given that this is one of only 2 Helton/Ramirez PSA 8s, and only 2 are graded higher with no 10s in existence, this is a very valuable card.
