2014 Topps Stadium Club Baseball Preview and Full Checklist

2014 Topps Stadium Club Baseball marks the return of the name that launched the ‘premium’ brand in sports cards and we now know more about the return of a product that first made its debut back in 1991 and last appeared in 2008.  Topps has offered a sneak preview at the product but you won’t find this one at your local Walmart or Target.  It’s exclusive to online dealers and hobby shops.  A complete, downloadable checklist is below.

The Finest base set will consist of 200 cards with each pack containing five of the brand’s signature full-bleed photo cards.

Topps will bring back inserts from past sets like Beam Team, Triumvirates — including Luminous, Luminescent, and Illuminator versions along with Lone Star Autographs.

There will be three mini boxes of six packs inside each master box of 2014 Stadium Club.  Topps promises an on-card autograph guaranteed in every mini-box so collectors can likely expect three signed cards inside every box at a likely cost of $100-115.

There will be 12 boxes per case.

Topps has put together some unique photos of past and present players for the set including Ted Williams in his military gear, Jackie Robinson signing autographs, and even Boston Red Sox DH David Ortiz taking a selfie with President Barack Obama.
