Basic Features

2016 Topps Archives Baseball will continue to feature iconic designs from previous decades.

No Cubs in the SP this year.

Topps' decision to develop a modern-day insert set based on the design of the very rare original set should make fans of the 1969 Topps Super edition pleased.

Topps Originals Autographs will be authentic cards from the year they were released, foil stamped and signed.

Operation Desert Shield is a 2016 Topps Archives partial parallel series, with cards 201-300 using the 1991 Topps Baseball base set design. The Operation Desert Shield cards were issued to troops in 1991, and this collection commemorates the 35th anniversary of its release.
