Sumo Trading Cards - 2021 series 1

Imported from Japan.  These Sumo Trading Cards are based on the November, 2020 tournament rankings and were issued January, 2021.  This is the first series of Sumo Trading Cards for 2021.  Unlike previous series, each pack contains 6 random cards.  Prior series had 5 cards per pack.  The complete set has all 42 top division (Makuuchi) wrestlers, 28 second division (Juryo) wrestlers, 2 new Juryo wrestlers, 4 up and comers, and 14 Fighter cards for a base set total of 90.   There are also 9 different autographed cards.  One is included randomly across every few boxes (20 packs per box for a total of 120 cards per box).  Autographs are from Shodai, Wakatakakage, Daieisho, Tobizaru, Endo, Meisei, Yutakayama, Hoshoryu, and Akua. Most of the text on the cards is in Japanese, however, the wrestler's English language name is also on the card for those of us who don't speak Japanese. Yokozuna for this series are Hakuho and Kakuryu.  Ozeki are Asanoyama, Takakeisho, and new Ozeki Shodai.  Sekiwa
