Jump to the 2019 Topps Archives Signatures Series Baseball checklist.
2019 Topps Archives Signatures Series Baseball: Active Player Edition probably has the most eclectic mix of autographs from current players. As with past years, it’s a buyback product. Rather than creating entirely new cards, the product uses ones from the past with the signature added.
Boxes come with one autograph.
2019 Topps Archives Signature Series Baseball: Active Player Edition Overview
One of the benefits of going the autographed buyback route is that signatures are all hard-signed. As for the sets they come from, it will be a mix of modern Topps and Bowman releases. In fact, it might be hard to determine the full scope of cards players have signed. Traditionally with the Archives Signature Series line, players sign a lot of different cards. The trade-off is that they are individually done in small numbers.
A gold foil stamp is on every 2019 Topps Archives Signature Series Baseball card to show that it’s from the product and not an in-person signature someone may have gotten at the ballpark or a through-the-mail request. The stamp also notes the year so there’s no confusion if a similar card appears in another Archives Signature Series set.

So over the years I have never purchased product until just recently. I was at NSCC and gave it a whirl to get a redemption pack. I understand these are buybacks but do they make any effort to get cards in decent shape? My card is barely 3 yrs old with 3 white corners and one with a very visible dogeared creased corner. I could understand a wider variance of damage for the retired player set (which is why I avoided that set). I got a card from middle years of a player earning league-min salary player batting 80 points below their weight. I had to verify they made 2019 opening-day roster. My card was a 10 cent card they could have likely found in better condition on the floor of NSCC. I didn’t expect Trout or anything GEM mint but I thought a memorable card or memorable year from a C/D-list star that is in NrMT shape shouldn’t be a huge ask. Maybe my experience isn’t typical. If my card was in good shape this would be a $1-$2 card – but it isn’t in good shape. I might contact Topps about my condition complaints – I’m sure I’m just spitting into the wind.
