NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- 5W Public Relations, one of the largest independently-owned PR firms in the U.S., has been announced winner of the newsjacking award in Ragan's Media Relations Awards. The award recognizes 5WPR's Lifestyle Team and their outstanding work with client The Topps Company, on their record-breaking limited release Topps Now Baseball Card.
