Topps launches trading card line featuring college athletes – RetailWire

Topps is launching a line of trading cards that feature college athletes. The brand’s parent company, Fanatics, will share profits with some of the players and their schools. “We think this entire category is one that will not only bring new collectors into the space, but will also benefit student-athletes to expand product offerings available in the marketplace,” Derek Eiler, executive vice president of Fanatics’ college division.
