Topps announces special 65th anniversary buybacks for 2016 Series 1 Baseball

Topps is marking their 65th year of producing baseball cards with a specially stamped set of buyback cards in 2016 Series 1 Baseball.

The buyback cards will span seven decades of Topps releases and feature some of the biggest names in baseball history, including Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Ted Williams, Nolan Ryan, Ozzie Smith and Reggie Jackson. Legendary hall of famers, such as Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig, will also be included on cards printed after their playing careers ended.

Topps 65th Anniversary buybacks in 2016 Series 1 will have five different levels of scarcity similar to the 50th Anniversary buybacks in 2015 Topps Football. Each level will be distinguished by a different color stamp: Black (Standard), Red (Limited), Blue (Rare), Silver (Scarce) and Gold (1 of 1).

    I happened to find a silver stamped buy back Mickey Tettleton. It has the silver stamp but it also has a “Topps archive fane favorite certified autograph issue” stamp. That stamp is gold and there is a signature on the card. It is a 2014 Topps product. Is this part of this same subset or is this something different?

    Ok maybe I’m having a Homer Simpson moment; but for the stamped buybacks can we send them in and expect the original card in return. If so where do we send them.

    thanks
