2015 Topps Heritage Includes Scratch ‘n Sniff Cards

March 3, 2015 By Rich Mueller

2015 Topps Heritage Baseball is set for release Wednesday, March 4 with the design focused around the company’s 1966 card set.  You might feel like you’re back in ’66 if you are lucky enough to pull what are ‘scratch ‘n sniff’ variations to certain cards.

In the hours ahead of the official release, some dealers were opening cases of the product and came across card backs that had a white strip or two, sort of like the wax stains you may have found on cards years ago.  Rubbing a finger across it, they say, revealed a slight aroma of the gum we got with packs of cards until the early 1990s.

I asked a guy to scratch the back of one those card backs (not the lighter ones but the gum stain rectangle ones) and sure enough BUBBLE GUM

Topps says the “gum damage’ variations appear on all 500 subjects in the base card set but that’s an odd term to use considering it was the wax seal Scratch n Sniff 2015 Topps Heritagethat left a skid mark on the bottom card in each back during the days when gum came with packs, not the gum.

So far, it appears as if there are about a half dozen scratch ‘n sniff cards per case of Heritage so they will be hard to find.

Once again, there will be 24 packs per hobby box of Heritage.  A full checklist is linked below.

Each Heritage box will contain one autograph or relic card as well as a box loader that could includeJose Abreu 2015 Topps Heritage Mariano Rivera Topps Heritage Punch OutAd Panels, three-card strips with an ad on the back, original 1966 Topps cards foil-stamped with a 50th anniversary logo and 1966 Oversized Punch Boards, styled after the vintage Topps Punch Out game with an insert version numbered to 50, Jumbo Patches numbered to 25, autographs numbered to 10 and 2015 Topps Heritage Cubs Rookiesautographed Jumbo Patches numbered to 10. There is a 425-card base set in 2015 Topps Heritage with 75 additional short prints to be chased. Base card photo variations include Throwback uniforms and In Action images.  Parallels include Blue backs, Minis (# to 100), Chrome Variation, Chrome Refractor, black-bordered Chrome Refractors (# to 66) and gold-bordered Chrome (# to 5). Some of the off-season moves in baseball are reflected with back variations that reflect the player’s new team.

One of the throwback inserts in 2015 Heritage is 1966 Bazooka. Here is the 2014 batting champ pic.twitter.com/H6Bpk4zU6b — Topps Company (@toppscards) March 2, 2015
