TRISTAR brings tobacco card aesthetic to minors with Obak set coming soon
TRISTAR‘s foray into the genre of tobacco card styled baseball card sets begins later this month as its Obak set is now scheduled for an Aug. 31 release.
The set will include a rich list of players from the past and the present in Minor League Baseball as well as a few other surprises. The product also will include variations and various card back styles as was the norm with old tobacco cards.
