Leaf Trading Cards is rolling out two highly anticipated baseball card sets that promise to delight collectors and enthusiasts alike with a spectacular lineup of autographs, top MLB prospects, and exclusive inserts.
Launching on October 25, Leaf Metal will be available in Hobby and Jumbo Box formats. The Hobby Box boasts seven cards, including four autographs, two base/parallel cards, and an exclusive “mojo auto.” On the other hand, the Jumbo Box features 14 cards, with eight autographs, four base/parallel cards, a “pulsar auto” exclusive to the Jumbo Box, and a “slabbed auto proof.” All autographs and base parallel cards in Leaf Metal are limited to 35 or fewer copies.
Collectors can look forward to chasing after standout cards like the triple autograph card featuring the top three picks of the 2024 MLB Draft: Travis Bazzana, Charlie Condon, and Chase Burns. Notable 2024 draftees such as Nick Kurtz, Hagen Smith, and Konnor Griffin will also have autographs in this release. Baseball America’s top-ranked prospect, Roman Anthony, makes an appearance with a card in the “91 Leaf” insert set, paying homage to a classic Leaf series. Additionally, top prospects like Chase Dollander, Dylan Crews, and Coby Mayo, as well as potential future draftees like Ethan Holliday, add to the excitement. Rookies and recent graduates including Paul Skenes, Elly De La Cruz, and James Wood complete the star-studded lineup.
Leaf Press Pass Premium, set to release on November 8, offers high-quality cards in premium boxes containing six base cards and parallels, along with five autographs. One autograph per box will be numbered to 25 or fewer copies, increasing the exclusivity of the set. Featuring a 100-card base set and a 100-card retro base set, each with eight parallels numbered to 35 or fewer, this series will include autographs from 2024 draftees and future prospects like Ethan Holliday, as well as veteran stars the likes of Mookie Betts, Ichiro, and Nolan Ryan.
Autographs in the base set are limited to 199 copies or fewer, while retro base autographs are capped at 49 copies or fewer. Leaf Press Pass Premium also introduces a “Press Box Signatures” insert showcasing iconic names such as John Smoltz, Jim Rome, and Vin Scully.
Both Leaf Metal and Leaf Press Pass Premium will be available on Leaf’s website and at major card retailers. Featuring a wide array of talent, from promising rookies to legendary veterans, these sets are sure to offer collectors a unique and exciting addition to their collections.
