National Topps Allen & Ginter Day is August 7th!

I'm excited. Miggy's excited. Are YOU excited?

August 7, 2013 is the official date of this year's National Topps Allen & Ginter Day.  As I've mentioned previously, my collecting funds are limited this year but I've been eyeing this year's Ginter release as my triumphant return to collecting (albeit on a smaller basis).  I am committed to completing a full expanded set as usual, but it may take me longer than normal.

This year's lineup is STACKED with non-baseball people that pique my interest and the interest of others (based on reactions I've seen on Twitter).   Similar to last year, here are 10 non-baseball autograph cards that I'm most excited about from this year's Topps Allen & Ginter release:

1. Freddie Roach

2. Monty Hall

3. Adam Richman

4. Bill Walton

5. Penny Marshall

6. Mark Cuban

7. Ed O'Neill

8. Axl Rose (although it'll be quite expensive)

9. Pele

10. Bud Selig (not personally a fan, but a cool inclusion)
