Baseball Card Manufacturers: Create Your Own Custom Cards
While traditional baseball card manufacturers focus on professional players, what about celebrating your own baseball heroes?
For decades, major baseball card manufacturers like Topps, Panini, and Upper Deck have dominated the trading card industry, producing cards exclusively for MLB stars and prospects. But youth players, amateur athletes, and recreational league participants have been left out of this collectible tradition, with no way to create professional-quality cards featuring their own achievements.
