The buybacks come from a variety of Topps sets and years spanning decades. They can be base cards, inserts, or even memorabilia cards. Since the exact mix isn't published, you're hunting for specific players and vintage years.
Q4Are the autographs on-card or sticker?
All autographs are on-card, which is a big deal for collectors. Each signature is hand-signed directly on the original vintage card.

Very rare. Because each player signs many different cards and the numbering varies by card, most individual cards have low print runs. Beckett notes that complete checklists aren't available, so you're often chasing blind.
