Freddie Freeman’s rookie card is in the 2011 Topps set alongside fellow All-Star Chris Sale. Throughout the years, any player on the Atlanta Braves has been tough TTM as the team does not typically forward fan mail. After several attempts, I was fortunate to get him once. Ultimately, I decided to sell it so that I could upgrade. I purchased a raw 2011 Topps Chrome Blue Refractor on eBay and sent it into a paid signing with a blue paint pen. I love the image on the card and how it looks autographed.
Currently there is only 1 autographed 2011 Topps Chrome Blue Refractor Freddie Freeman rookie cards in the PSA registry.
