It does seem that the negative that was used to create the photo that Topps used was the same negative that was used to create this wire photo. I guess that's all anyone who is buying this (or something similar) would think anyways, right? Same with the case where a wire photo that shows more detail than the card, I would think. They are not claiming that this particular wire photo was in Topps possession and was used when they made the card, just that the same instant in time shot (negative) was the ultimate source for both the card and this photo, perhaps. At any rate, this is not like a unique Topps production photo or negative, just a nice companion piece to the card. Right?
