Back in 2016 the Tony and Alicia Gwynn Foundation (TAG) did a fundraiser to build a Tony Gwynn museum inside the AleSmith Brewing Co. Depending on the donation made to help fund this project depended on the different rewards that would be sent out to the donor. One of the rewards was this card produced by Topps.
I know all the information about the origin of this card. What I don't know is how to label it to add it to the database. It is a Topps card made for the AleSmith Brewing Co. to distribute as a promotion to help fund the building of the Tony Gwynn Museum. Would it go under Topps, AleSmith Brewing Co., or Tony Gwynn Museum or some variation of those titles?

Let's call the "set":
2016 Topps Tony Gwynn Museum
There is no mention of the AleSmith Brewing Co. anywhere on the card, so that might confuse people.

Add that to the list of cards I really want that I'll never own....

A man has to have goals — for a day, for a lifetime — and that was mine, to have people say, "There goes Ted Williams, the greatest hitter who ever lived." |

BTW, that isn't simply a sticker on the front of the card, is it?

You mean like when they stamp original cards (buybacks) with foil?

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them. |
