Each Happy Hobby Sports Card Newsletter For Collectors has a handful of great sports card subjects, helping sports card collectors working with limited budgets!

It’s the end of the year and that usually means we should look back before we look forward to the new year! We nominate base rookie cards in four different categories for four different main sports that people like to collect, with several releases of Panini, Topps and Upper Deck flagship products!

You can vote here: https://forms.gle/2KnyEtX8NoYob4dy6

By voting, you are eligible to win a 2011 Topps Freddie Freeman RC PSA 9 slab! Voting ends at midnight, Dec. 22, 2025, and the winner will be announced shortly after!

The four categories for each sport (baseball, basketball, football and hockey) we listed are:

* Best Rookie Card!

* Best Rookie Card Comeback!

* Best Sleeper Future Star Rookie Card!

* Biggest Rookie Card Bust!

There are many great rookie cards that came out this year, from Topps Series 1, 2 and Update, as well as Prizm Basketball, Prizm Football, and Upper Deck Hockey Series 1, 2 and Extended! We need your help to discover what the very best rookie cards were in each category!
