Aaron Judge's 2017 Topps rookie is #287 in Series One, released the first week of February 2017.
Series One was 350 of the year's 700 cards, borderless for the second year running. The backs dropped full career statistics for the first time since 1971 and added the players' social media handles. The parallels ran from Rainbow Foil and Gold to 2017 through holiday versions down to a Platinum of one.
He is at the wall in the Yankees' home pinstripes, reaching high with his glove for a fly ball, his other hand open beside it, padded blue wall behind him. The RC logo sits at the upper right under the Topps logo. Across the bottom, a silver bar slants up from the Yankees' top-hat logo with AARON JUDGE, NEW YORK YANKEES and OF.
Reaching for a fly ball, in the first card of his first full season.
There are two other pictures of #287. A short-printed variation shows him in the dugout, and the factory-set version shows him running.
He had made his debut the August before. That season he hit 52 home runs, a rookie record at the time, and was named Rookie of the Year on every ballot.
