THE MOMENT

Hits home run 50 to set the major-league rookie record

The season’s earlier Judge cards are chapters; #654 is the record card. His 50th homer passed Mark McGwire’s rookie mark and gave Topps the cleanest summary of the chase. The 16,138-copy run is not scarce, yet eleven recent exact raw sales still produce a $20 median, twice the original price, because the sporting moment remains legible.
