These 2020 Topps Opening Day Toronto Blue Jays Variations Are Only in Canada
Usually when Canadians get sports card exclusives, it’s connected to hockey. But not always. The 2020 Topps Opening Day Baseball Canada Variations give the country something to call their own from the baseball diamond.
The list has just six cards, all of which are Toronto Blue Jays. The variations land one per retail blister pack. There’s a notation at the top of the packaging noting the exclusive card.
2020 Topps Opening Day Canada Variations are not in packs. Rather they’re loose between two of the packs in the blister packaging. While most should be okay unless they’re tossed around the store, this does leave them a little more susceptible to damage.
This isn’t the first year that there has been exclusive Opening Day cards for Canadians. Last year, however, they were Blue Jays parallels.
2020 Topps Opening Day takes it a step further. There’s still the addition of maple leafs in the name plate to make them immediately noticeable like a parallel. However, when you compare the cards with their base counterparts, the difference in images jump out as well.
The Canada-only cards join 30 traditional Image Variations found in packs. These SSP cards aren’t exclusives, though.
