Topps Archives Baseball
24 packs // 8 cards per pack
Exclusive Derek Jeter Retrospective Cards
2 On-Card autos per box
I received the following:
Base
Total of 176 unique base cards were received of the set of 300. ( I purchased an additional box - must have purchased a parallel box -- got maybe 5 extra cards for the set -- kind of frustrating!)
The base set of 300 Archives is made up of reprint styles from 1960, 1982, and 1992 respectively. It is done well and seems to even use the same type of card stock that was originally used.
The 300 card set has current players, rookies, and retired players as well - Ruth, Aaron, Mays, Ryan, etc.. It is a great set for the younger collector to start on to learn more about the rich history of the great game of baseball. It is also a good issue for the storied collector to reminisce about the history of the game.

******************
Archives also has some variations - such as grey backs, glossy backs, peach (some say light red), blue, etc.... The '59 Bazookas - some have autos, as well as some of the Rookie Stars are auto'd. I am told in the retail version of Archives there are coins... something else to chase!!!
There is something for nearly anyone who collects sets, players, rookies, variations, parallels, or autographs.
***Anyone looking to complete a set or help me complete mine, I have a ton of duplicate base.****
Overall grade A
Go buy several boxes - complete your set - trade with me - and/or send your Rays colored parallels to me!!
