Here is a list of products that the Topps Baseball Card Comapany makes (excludes Bowman products):
It drives me crazy when people on YouTube mishandle relic cards. Relic cards, for those of you who don’t know, are thick baseball cards that contain usually part of a player’s jersey, bat, hat, glove, or ball. Here is what you should do if you pull a relic from a pack of cards:
In recent years, Topps and other baseball card companies have been inserting on card autographs in their packs. This means the player signs on the card. Some people do not know how to case them. Here is how to properly case an auto-card.
Topps is the only baseball card brand in 2017 that is actually associated with MLB (Topps owns Bowman, so Bowman doesn’t count). Panini, Donruss, and other brands are not officially licensed by MLB. Each year, Topps makes a lot of common series such as Series 1, Series 2, Update Series, Topps Heritage, Topps Chrome, and Allen & Ginter. What some do not know is that Topps also releases other series that are more expensive and rare. These are usually Hobby Shop exclusives, but they are still popular. Topps High Tek, retailing around $50 dollars, use new card technology to make the cards transparent. Topps Finest, retailing at about $99 dollars a master box, features players of all years and two autographs or relics per mini box. Triple Threads, retailing at about $200, contain extremely high chances of autographs and relics. Topps Museum Collection, retailing around $250-$300, contains 20 cards for each master box. Each Master Box is divided into four Mini Boxes with five cards per mini box. But what makes these cards so expensive? Well, each mini box contains either a autograph or relic. In total, each Master Box has one on card autograph, one normal relic, one special relic (one double, triple, or quadruple relic), and one auto-relic. These cards are sometimes refered to as Topps Royalty because of their expensive price and high odds.
