2016 Topps Archives 65th Anniversary Box

I finally saw one of these boxes sitting at Wal-Mart and picked one up.  For the price I couldn't complain about getting a guaranteed autograph, although I don't have high expectations for pulling a big name player.


As you can see, these cards are reprints of other cards.  I took a picture of the back and put it down further below.  There are a few cool reprint cards in here, but nothing mind blowing.  Topps has reprinted some of these cards as "inserts" the past few years.






For my auto I got Scott Hatteberg.  The only reason I recognize this name is from the scene in Moneyball when he hits a walk off homerun to extend the A's winning streak. lol


I'll throw this onto the trade pile for anyone interested.  Thanks for stopping by!

  1. A reprint of a 2016 card issued in 2016. (Seager). That is pretty dumb.

  2. I wouldn't mind picking up one of these boxes if I came across one that was discount, but the guaranteed auto is not enough of a lure for me to pull the trigger on such a small number of cards.

    1. Yeah, I would say wait for it to go on clearance. Or just save the $20 and put it towards the card you want on eBay from the set. Lol
