Frequently asked
What are the key rookie cards in 2018 Topps Museum Collection?
The marquee rookie is Shohei Ohtani (#100). Other notable RCs include Rafael Devers (#88), Ozzie Albies (#87), Victor Robles (#95), Rhys Hoskins (#81), Clint Frazier (#83), and Francisco Mejia (#96). All are in the 100-card base set.
What does every hobby box contain?
Each box has four single-pack mini boxes, and each mini box contains one hit. Across a master box you get one autographed relic, one on-card autograph, one prime relic, and one quad relic. You also pull one Canvas Collection insert and four base parallels.
How do the base parallels work?
Each pack contains one parallel. Copper is unnumbered. The others are serial-numbered: Sapphire (/150), Amethyst (/99), Ruby (/50), and Emerald (1/1).
What makes Museum Framed Autographs special?
These are case hits, meaning you pull one per 12-box case. Silver Frame versions are numbered to 15. Rarer parallels include Gold Frame (/10), Black Frame (/5), and Wood Frame (1/1). The framing design is one of the brand's hallmarks.
Are there any dual or triple autographs?
Yes. Dual Autographs are hard-signed and numbered to 15. Triple Autographs are hard-signed and numbered to 5. There are also Signature Swatches Dual and Triple Relic Autographs with multiple pieces of game-worn gear.
What are Canvas Collection Originals?
These are hand-painted original artwork cards featuring drawings and paintings rather than photographs. Canvas Collection Autographs pair the original art with a player signature. All are one-of-ones and highly sought by collectors who appreciate the artistic element.
What relic options are available beyond quad relics?
Meaningful Material cards feature patch or premium swatches, numbered to 50 or less with Copper (/35), Gold (/25), Red (/10), and Emerald (1/1) parallels.
