Sorry if previously discussed

How much do you think Trout being in a throwback uniform on the 2011 Topps Update impacts its desirability?

I think it helps the card a lot - its his only 2009 or 2011 card in that uniform

Up until I read this 30 seconds ago I had no idea that was even a throwback jersey. In the end he plays for the angels, not the pirates, Astros, white sox, Braves, etc that have highly distinguishable throwbacks. It might make a difference to hardcore Angels collectors, but I would bet it doesn't factor in at all for anyone else.

I don't think it matters at all. Just like the poster above me, I had no idea that it even was a throwback.

Less than zero.

Still looking for some help, I posted a couple of pages ago but it didn't gain any traction. I'll have a 11x14 photo of the image used for his '11 Topps update card. What would be best as far as an inscription goes by him that would make a cool addition to his signature? "my '11 Topps RC photo" or something different?
Thanks!

I would have Mike use a silver pen on the dark part of the photo. To each their own but I don't think the inscription is all that inspiring...

I personally think that's an inscription that gives it no, and maybe negative, value to most people. I'd rather just have a nice signature on something like that. Unless you can get him to put "better than Mickey Mantle" on there I'd leave it. Again, just my thoughts.

I swear, this card just gets shinier each and every time you post it here in this thread...! WOW!!

Think you might have an extra "0" on your ask price in the BST thread, though. LOLOLOL

It is a beautiful card regardless of the grade!

I've bid on a PSA 6 2011 Update before figuring I'd get it cheap. Apparently the card has a high floor because it still went for over $200. I own a PSA 5 or 6 2010 Bowman Platinum.

2012 Finest Trout cards have never picked up speed value wise. I have some low numbered ones myself and I've never really found the opportunity to sell them. Atomics and Reds look great but they won't sell for what they should.
