Topps signs Howard to exclusive deal for memorabilia

The deal grants New York City-based Topps exclusive rights within the MLB trading card category for autographed baseball cards, game-used memorabilia cards and Howard's image use on packaging and advertising.  Howard will be featured on boxes of 2007 Topps Baseball Series 1, which is available in stores nationwide the second week of February.  Howard's 58-Home Run MVP season will also be commemorated with a special set in 2007 Topps Baseball.

''What Ryan has done in his first two seasons is absolutely amazing,'' said Warren Friss, GM, Topps Sports. ''Ryan is the face of a new generation of baseball stars.''

Howard, 27, was awarded the National League MVP after hitting a Major League-high 58 home runs and knocking in 149 RBIs.  He also set a Phillies team record with 37 intentional walks and won the 2006 All-Star Home Run Derby.

Topps lineup of exclusives also includes Miami Heat's Dwyane Wade, New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez, New York Met David Wright and the Mickey Mantle estate.

It just shows that he's getting recognition and marketing deals like the big stars now, that's all.


(plus it's money the Phils don't have to pay him)
