Why This Card Matters

Max Scherzer is a **three-time Cy Young Award winner (2013 with Detroit, 2016 and 2017 with Washington)**, a **two-time World Series champion (2019 and 2023)** and the author of **two no-hitters in 2015**. On **June 10, 2026 at Rogers Centre he struck out Kyle Schwarber for career strikeout number 3,500** — the 11th pitcher in major-league history to get there — and he sits at **222 wins and 3,507 strikeouts with a 3.27 ERA**. He also **started World Series Game 7 for Toronto in 2025**, his second winner-take-all Game 7 start, something no other living pitcher has done. This is his base card in 2025 Topps Allen & Ginter, the throwback tobacco-card set built on the 1887 Allen & Ginter design.

Set & Parallel Note

Allen & Ginter revives the 1887 tobacco-card look — ornate frame, cream stock, THE WORLD'S CHAMPIONS header on the back, and BROOKLYN, NEW YORK on the front. This is the **base** card: standard cream border with no black, silver or glossy border treatment. **It is a standard 2.5 x 3.5 inch card, not a mini** — worth stating explicitly, since A&G's mini cards are a separate and frequently confused format. **Not serial numbered**, all four edges of both sides checked. **Not a short print:** A&G's short prints are the tail of the base set at #301-350, and #140 sits comfortably inside the regular run. Back code CODE#CMP111115. A note on the stock: A&G's textured card stock reads as normal paper grain under magnification, not as damage.
