Topps officials announced today that Barry Bonds' first autograph and relic cards of 2007 will appear in the mid-October release of Topps Updates and Highlights.

"Topps has been following [Bonds] since day one, since he first got called up to the big leagues," says Topps' Clay Luraschi. "To see what he’s done over these past 20 plus years, being there step by step with him, has been exciting to watch. We’re obviously thrilled about what has happened [with home run No. 756]. It means a lot to baseball and it means a lot to us because he’s a Topps exclusive."
